| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Ro 41-0960 has been used as an inhibitor of catechol-O-methyl-transferase in synaptosome membrane preparations and 3T3-L1 adipocytes. It has also been used as a catechol-O-methyl-transferase inhibitor to tre at corpus striatum samples to test its effect on dopamine metabolism. | [Preparation]
preparation by demethylation of 2′-fluoro-4- hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-nitrobenzophenone with 48% hydrobromic acid in refluxing acetic acid for 4 h (86%). | [Biological Activity]
Ro 41-0960 is a specific and synthetic inhibitor of the enzyme catechol-O-methyl-transferase (COMT). It binds to the catalytic site and triggers the inhibition of the methylation property of COMT. Ro 41-0960 is effective on uterine leiomyoma lesions and uterine fibroids. | [storage]
