The aim of this study was to establish whether ionized as well as un-ionized forms of certain 4-oxo-4H-1-benzopyran-2-carboxylic acids (chromone-2-carboxylic acids) with pKa values less than 2 permeated through excised human skin and, if so, to determine the permeability coefficients

The nasal absorption of a range of water-soluble compounds with different molecular weights, 4-oxo-4H-1-benzopyran-2-carboxylic acid (mol. wt 190), p-aminohippuric acid (mol. wt 194), inulin (mol. wt 5200) and dextran (mol. wt 70,000), has been investigated in the male Wistar rat.

Chromone carboxylic acids were evaluated as human monoamine oxidase A and B (hMAO-A and hMAO-B) inhibitors. The biological data indicated that only chromone-3-carboxylic acid is a potent hMAO-B inhibitor, with a high degree of selectivity for hMAO-B compared to hMAO-A.
