Diastereoselective synthesis of potent antimalarial cis-β-lactam agents
Authors
Abstract:
Fifteen novel β-lactams bearing the N-ethyl tert-butyl carbamate group 5a-o and fifteen N-(2-aminoethyl) β-lactams 6a-o were synthesized by the ketene-imine [2+2] cycloaddition reaction (Staudinger ). The cycloaddition reaction was found to be totally diastereoselective leading exclusively to the formation of the cis-β-lactam derivatives. These newly synthesized β-lactams were evaluated for their antimalarial activity against p. falciparum K14 resistant strain and showed good to excellent EC50 values. Of the thirty β-lactams tested, 5h, 6a and 6c showed IC50 < 20 µM while 5b, 5c, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5i, 5j, 6d, 6g and 6h exhibited IC50

Enantioselective synthesis of encecaline-derived potent antimalarial agents.
The high antiplasmodial activity of racemic benzylamines rac-1 and rac-2 stimulated the synthesis of pure enantiomers. Ellman's chiral sulfinamides (S)-6 and (R)-6 were used as chiral auxiliaries. Condensation of prochiral ketone 5 with enantiomerically pure sulfinamides (S)-6 and (R)-6 and subsequent NaBH4 reduction provided predominantly unlike configured diastereomers (S,R)-8 and (R,S)-8 (ra...

The manuscript pertains to the synthesis of urea/oxalamide tethered β-lactam-7-chloroquinoline conjugates with well modulated chain lengths and their antimalarial evaluation. The results reveal the dependence of activity profiles on the N-1 substituent of the β-lactam ring, the nature of the linker as well as the length of the alkyl chain. The most potent of the tested compounds showed an IC50 ...

Diisopropylamino-cis-2,6-dimethylpiperidinocarbene reacts regio- and diastereoselectively with CO to afford a bicyclic β-lactam with 100% atom efficiency, whose spectrum of activity resembles that of penicillin G or amoxicillin.
full textSynthesis and Potent Antimalarial Activity of Kalihinol B
Of the 50+ kalihinane diterpenoids reported to date, only five had been tested for antimalarial activity, in spite of the fact that kalihinol A is the most potent among the members of the larger family of antimalarial isocyanoterpenes. We have validated a strategy designed to access many of the kalihinanes with a 12-step enantioselective synthesis of kalihinol B, the tetrahydrofuran isomer of k...
full textCryptolepine and development of new antimalarial agents
Natural product-derived drugs exemplified by quinine, isolated from South American Cinchona species and artemisinin discovered in China are of immense importance for the treatment of malaria. Although malaria parasites resistant to artemisinin have not yet been found in malaria patients, the need for new antimalarial agents remains. The burden of malaria is heaviest in Africa where over a milli...
