CsOH- or Ag2O-mediated cycloalkylation of (alkylidene)bisperoxides 3 and 1,n.-dihaloalkanes (n = 3-8) provided the corresponding medium-sized 1,2,4,5-tetraoxacycloalkanes 4-8 in moderate yields. Subsequent evaluation of the antimalarial activity of the cyclic peroxides 4-8 in vitro and in vivo revealed that 1,2,6,7-tetraoxaspiro [7.11]nonadecane 4a has considerable potential as a new, inexpensive, and potent antimalarial drug.
