Abstract
Both 4-(aminomethyl)-l-phenyl-2-pyrrolidinone (4a) and 4-(aminomethyl)-1-(methoxyphenyl)-2-pyr-rolidinone (4b) hydrochlorides were synthesized via a six-step sequence, which represents a general approach to 1,4-disubstituted 2-pyrrolidinones. Both of these compounds inactivated monoamine oxidase B and represent the first in a new class of monomamine oxidase inactivators.
