The synthesis (Pd-mediated coupling strategy) and characterization (NMR, IR, elemental analysis, etc.) of a short series of quinoline-oxazole hybrid compounds has been carried out. These materials are found to be moderately active against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro, with activities in the sub-micromolar range, and to display acceptable cytotoxicity to mononuclear leukocytes. Chemical modification strategies, with the intention to increase the biological potency of this new class of anti-malarial agents, are discussed. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
