Antimalarial activity of new ethers and thioethers of dihydroartemisinin
摘要:
Various ethers and thioethers of dihydroartemisinin were prepared by treating dihydroartemisinin with hydroxy alkyl, substituted phenol, hydroxy aralkyl, hydroxy alkynyl and hydroxy heteroalkyl or thiols in the presence of BF(3)Et(2)O. The thioethers 64 and 65 were further oxidised to the respective sulfoxides. These derivatives were tested in the Plasmodium berghei K-173-infected mice and some active compounds were tested in chloroquine-resistant P yoelii nigeriensis (NS)-infected mice. Initially the compounds were administered subcutaneously and subsequently by the oral route. The antimalarial activity of the compounds 22, 23, 36, 66 and 79 were found to be comparable to that of arteether when tested in the K-173-infected mice. These compounds also showed activity in the P y nigeriensis (NS)-infected mice.

monosubstituted acetylenic derivatives 4 to give 3-bromo-5-substituted isoxazoles 5 in high yield. The experimental conditions necessary to overcome difficulties such as the low reactivity of acetylenicdipolarophiles and the high tendency to dimerization of bromonitrile oxide 2, are discussed; the regioselectivity of this 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition is also studied. The obtained improvements in the synthesis of
Bromonitrite oxide can be generated homogeneously in water at acidic pH, allowing efficient [3 + 2] cycloaddition with water soluble olefins and acetylenes. Allylammonium salts react with high regioselectivity and without the need for N-group protection.
