Location makes a difference . Fluorinated analogues of the antidepressive tranylcypromine (see structures) are much stronger inhibitors of different monoamine oxidases such as microbial tyramine oxidase or human liver mitochondrial‐outer‐membrane monoamine oxidases A and B. Regiochemistry, as well as relative and absolute stereochemistry of the fluorine substituent at the cyclopropane ring, has a strong influence on the effectiveness of inhibition and on the physicochemical data, such as p K a values, permeability, and log  D values.
