Dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes: a new class of antimalarial peroxides.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes 2-4 were synthesized as potential peroxide antimalarial drugs. They had curative activity against Plasmodium berghei in vivo at single doses of 320 and 640 mg/kg which confirms earlier unpublished data. Moreover, artemisinin (1) and 4 had equivalent ED50's against P. berghei in vivo in the multiple-dose Thompson test; neither showed any evidence of acute toxicity at total doses of more than 12 g/kg. Dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxane 4 had IC50's comparable to those of 1 against Plasmodium falciparum clones in vitro. These results confirm the potential of dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes as a new class of inexpensive peroxide antimalarial drugs.

Design and synthesis of orally active dispiro 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes; synthetic antimalarials with superior activity to artemisinin.
Unsymmetrical dispiro- and spirotetraoxanes have been designed and synthesized via acid-catalyzed cyclocondensation of bis(hydroperoxides) with ketones. Incorporation of water-soluble and polar functionalities, via reductive amination and amide bond formation, produces several analogues with low nanomolar in vitro antimalarial activity. Several analogues display an unprecedented level of oral a...
متن کاملMethyl-substituted dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes: correlations of structural studies with antimalarial activity.
Two tetramethyl-substituted dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes (7,8,15, 16-tetraoxadispiro[5.2.5.2]hexadecanes) 3 and 4 were designed as metabolically stable analogues of the dimethyl-substituted dispiro-1, 2,4,5-tetraoxane prototype WR 148999 (2). For a positive control we selected the sterically unhindered tetraoxane 5 (7,8,15, 16-tetraoxadispiro[5.2.5.2]hexadecane), devoid of any substituents. Tetr...
متن کاملSynthesis and antimalarial activity of sixteen dispiro-1,2,4, 5-tetraoxanes: alkyl-substituted 7,8,15,16-tetraoxadispiro[5.2.5. 2]hexadecanes.
Sixteen alkyl-substituted dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes (7,8,15, 16-tetraoxadispiro[5.2.5.2]hexadecanes) were synthesized to explore dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxane SAR and to identify tetraoxanes with better oral antimalarial activity than prototype tetraoxane 1 (WR 148999). The tetraoxanes were prepared either by peroxidation of the corresponding cyclohexanone derivatives in H(2)SO(4)/CH(3)CN or by ...
متن کاملSynthesis and antimalarial activity of 11 dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxane analogues of WR 148999. 7,8,15,16-Tetraoxadispiro[5.2.5.2]hexadecanes substituted at the 1 and 10 positions with unsaturated and polar functional groups.
Eleven novel dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes 3 bearing unsaturated and polar functional groups were designed to enhance the oral antimalarial activity of the prototype tetraoxane 2 (WR 148999). With the exception of 3g and 3h, tetraoxanes 3 were available via the peroxidation of corresponding cyclohexanone derivatives in H2SO4/CH3CN. Tetraoxanes 3g and 3h were prepared by hydrolysis of ester tetrao...

The present review describes the current status of synthetic five and six-membered cyclic peroxides such as 1,2-dioxolanes, 1,2,4-trioxolanes (ozonides), 1,2-dioxanes, 1,2-dioxenes, 1,2,4-trioxanes, and 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes. The literature from 2000 onwards is surveyed to provide an update on synthesis of cyclic peroxides. The indicated period of time is, on the whole, characterized by the devel...
