Orally Active 1,2,4-Trioxanes: Synthesis and Antimalarial Assessment of a New Series of 9-Functionalized 3-(1-Arylvinyl)-1,2,5-trioxaspiro[5.5]undecanes against Multi-Drug-Resistant Plasmodium yoeliinigeriensis in Mice
摘要:
Using easily accessible keto-trioxanes 7a-g as the starting materials, a series of new variously functionalized 1,2,4-trioxanes 10-36 have been prepared and evaluated for antimalarial activity against multi-drug-resistant Plasmodium yoelii nigeriensis in mice in the dose range of 24 mg/kg x 4 days to 96 mg/kg x 4 days by oral route. Trioxanes 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, and 22 have shown promising antimalarial activity. Trioxanes 14 and 18, the two most active compounds of the series, provide 100% and 60% protection at 48 mg/kg x 4 days and 24 mg/kg x 4 days, respectively. In this model beta-arteether provides 100% and 20% protection at 48 mg/kg x 4 days and 24 mg/kg x 4 days, respectively.
The present invention relates to spiro 1,2,4-trioxanes of general formula 4. This invention more particularly relates to a process for the preparation of a series of spiro 1,2,4-trioxanes.
Wherein, Ar represents aryl groups such as phenyl, 4-biphenyl, 4-chlorophenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl, 4-methylphenyl, 4-cyclohexylphenyl, 1-naphthyl, 2-naphthyl and the like and R represents hydrogen or the alkyl group such as methyl, ethyl and the like. Several of these compounds show high order of antimalarial activity against multidrug-resistant malaria in mice and thus hold promise as antimalarial agents against multidrug-resistant malaria.

An experimental protocol demonstrating the protection of the carbonylgroup as 1,2,4-trioxane, the stability of the protecting group under a variety of reaction conditions, and the regeneration of the carbonylgroup with Triton B in THF at room temperature is presented. The method provides a useful alternative for the protection of carbonyl compounds having acid-sensitive moieties.

A new series of functionalized 1,2,4-trioxanes 10-21 have been prepared and assessed for antimalarial activity in mice. Several of these trioxanes show significant activity. Trioxane 16, the most active compound of the series, has shown activity by oral route which is comparable with that of the clinically used drug, beta-arteether.
