The in vitro trypanocidal activity of organotin compounds
摘要:
A series of alkyl (aryl) thio organotin compounds were synthesized as potential trypanocidal drugs. These derivatives were prepared by the treatment of alkyl (or aryl) tin chlorides or oxides with thiols. Compounds were evaluated for trypanocidal activity using in vitro cultures of Trypanosoma equiperdum. Their efficiency for killing the parasites appeared to be under control of both the alkyl (or aryl) part of the molecule and the thio moiety. Several of the synthesized compounds exhibited a high in vitro levels of activity compared with the arsenic derivatives used for chemotherapy.
