Pargyline (hydrochloride) Cayman Chemical Item Number 10007852 Description Pargyline is an irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase (MAO) that is used clinically to treat moderate hypertension.1↗,2↗ At 10 mg/kg iv, pargyline induces a moderate decrease of systolic blood pressure in unanaesthetized hypertensive rats but not normotensive WKR or Sprague-Daley rats.3↗ The correlation between the fall of blood pressure and the inhibition of brain MAO suggests that the accumulation of amine in brain is responsible for the fall in pressure.4↗ Reactive oxygen species-mediated monocyte hypertrophy is prevented by pargyline at a concentration of 10 µM.1↗ Formal Name N-methyl-N-2-propynyl-benzenemethanamine, monohydrochloride CAS Number 306-07-0 Molecular Formula C11H13N · HCl Formula Weight 195.7 Formulation A crystalline solid Purity >98% Stability 2 years Storage -20°C Shipping Wet ice in continental US; may vary elsewhere SMILES CN(CC#C)CC1=CC=CC=C1.Cl InCHI Code 1S/C11H13N.ClH/c1-3-9-12(2)10-11-7-5-4-6-8-11;/h1,4-8H,9-10H2,2H3;1H InCHI Key BCXCABRDBBWWGY-UHFFFAOYSA-N |
