Chemistry:AGN-1135

From HandWiki

AGN-1135 (also known as racemic rasagiline or as N-propargyl-1-aminoindane) is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) that was never marketed.[1][2] It is the racemic form of rasagiline and is a mixture of the R(+)-enantiomer (rasagiline; TVP-1012) and S(–)-enantiomer (TVP-1022).[1][2] Like rasagiline, AGN-1135 is a selective monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitor.[1] Virtually all of the MAOI activity of AGN-1135 lies in rasagiline, which is several orders of magnitude more potent as an MAO-B inhibitor than the S(–)-enantiomer.[1] In relation to this, enantiopure rasagiline was developed and marketed for use as a pharmaceutical drug rather than AGP-1135.[1]
