Synthesis of antimalarial G-factors endoperoxides: relevant evidence of the formation of a biradical during the autoxidation step
摘要:
In the search for new antimalarial endoperoxides related to G-factors series, L[Sin, a methodology based on autoxidation of a dienol system, Unexpected cyclic ether alcohols and hydroperoxides were obtained confirming the structure of the previously postulated biradical intermediate implicated in oxygen uptake. Antimalarial activities of PMB-endoperoxides are greatly enhanced when the peroxyhemiketal function is methylated for the G3 endoperoxide. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
