N2 - (Aminoalkyl)trimethylgermanes, Me3Ge(CH2)nNH3+ (n = 1-3), are synthesized and shown to be mechanism-based irreversible inactivators of mitochondrial monoamine oxidase. At least two different adducts are formed by the three compounds. These are the first mechanism-based organogermanium inactivators of any specific enzyme.
