Toloxatone is a reversible monoamine oxidase A inhibitor (MAOI) and antidepressant.
Toloxatone is a reversible monoamine oxidase A inhibitor (MAOI) and antidepressant. Toloxatone belongs to the aryloxazolidinones, a relatively new class of reversible monoamine oxidase A inhibitors (MAOI). Studies show that derivatives such as 3-aryloxazolidin-2-one (oxazolidinones), which are regularly used to treat gram positive infections, represent a new class of reversible as well as irreversible inhibitors for MAO-A and MAO-B enzymes that are able to inhibit protein synthesis and also used for neurodegenerative-type pathologies.
Preparation Note
Toloxatone is soluble in DMSO at a concentration that is greater than 10 mg/ml.

Forced degradation of toloxatone in solutions under basic, acidic, neutral, photo UV-VIS, photo UVC and oxidative stress conditions was investigated and structural elucidation of its degradation products was performed with the use of UHPLC system coupled ESI-Q-TOF mass spectrometer. Eight
Cholinesterase (ChE) and monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors have been attracted as candidate treatments for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Fifteen khellactone-type coumarins from the roots of Peucedanum japonicum Thunberg were tested for acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and MAO inhibitory activities.

The possibility of a pharmacokinetic interaction between amitriptyline and toloxatone (a new MAOI-A) has been studied in 17 depressed in-patients. Amitriptyline and its demethylated and hydroxylated metabolites in blood and urine were measured at steady state after the administration of
Three flavanones and two flavones were isolated from the leaves of Prunus padus var. seoulensis by the activity-guided screening for new monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. Among the compounds isolated, rhamnocitrin (5) was found to potently and selectively inhibit human MAO-A
Eight compounds were isolated from the roots of Glycyrrhiza uralensis and tested for cholinesterase (ChE) and monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitory activities. The coumarin glycyrol (GC) effectively inhibited butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with IC50 values of 7.22 and 14.77 µM
