In this work, 2-alkyl-10-chloro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridines were obtained and their reactivity was studied. Novel derivatives of the tricyclic scaffold, including 1-phenylethynyl (5), 1-indol-3-yl (8), and azocino[4,5-b]quinoline (10) derivatives, were synthesized and characterized herein for the first time. Among the newly synthesized derivatives, 5c–h proved to be MAO B inhibitors with potency in the low micromolar range. In particular, the 1-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)ethynyl) analog 5g achieved an IC50 of 1.35 μM, a value close to that of the well-known MAO B inhibitor pargyline.
