Forty three cationic bisbenzofurans were synthesized either by interaction of o-hydroxyaldehydes with alpha-halogenated ketones followed by intramolecular ring closure or by a copper- or palladium-mediated heteroannulation of substituted o-iodophenols with terminal acetylenes. In vitro antiprotozoalactivities of compounds 1-43 against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, Plasmodium falciparum, and Leishmania
