Abstract: Despite recent efforts to eradicate malaria worldwide, this parasitic disease is still considered a major public health problem, with a total of 219 million malaria cases and 435,000 deaths in 2017 After a decade of use, however, resistance to CQ has emerged in some locations, including Southeast Asia, South America, and the Western Pacific region, spreading progressively into malaria-endemic areas, including Africa, where increases in malaria mortality have been observed. This has led, in recent years, to the adoption of artemisinin-based combination therapies. Artemisinin-based combination therapies remain effective in most parts of the world, but recent cases of resistance in Southeast Asia call for new approaches and especially new drugs to treat malaria. Thus, the present invention features CQ analogues of Formula (I) that exhibited high activity against CQ-sensitive and CQ-resistant blood parasites and were also active in mice.

Abstract: The present invention refers to new compounds represented by the general formula (I) where X is represented by the general formula (II) and Y is represented by the general formula (III). The relation X to Y may vary from 1:1 to 1:7. The radicals R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 in formula (II) are represented by: R1=H, CF3, CH3, OCH3, NH2, halogen; R2=H, CH3, NH2, halogen, NH—CHCH3(CH2)3N(C2H5)(CH2CH2OH), CH(OH)-2(C5H11N), NH—R7—N—(C2H5)2; R3=H, m-OC6H4CF3, NH2; R4=H, CH3, OCH3, NH2, halogen; R5=H, CH3, CF3, NH2, halogen; R6=H, CF3, CH3, NH2, halogen, NH—R8—N—(C2H5)2, NHCH(CH3)(CH2)3NH2; R7=(CH2)2, (CH2)3, CHCH3CH2, (CH2)4, (CH2)5, CHCH3(CH2)3, (CH2)6, (CH2)8, (CH2)10, (CH2)12; R8=CHCH3(CH2)3, CHCH3(CH2)CHCH3, (CH2)2, (CH2)3, (CH2)6, (CH2)3O(CH2)3. This invention also refers to a process of preparation of these compounds (formula I), and antiparasitic pharmaceutical compositions thereof.

Abstract: The present invention refers to new compounds derived from artesunate salts with quinolines represented by the general formula (I) where X is represented by the general formula (II) and Y is represented by the general formula (III) depending on the radicals substituted in X (formula II), the relation X to Y (formula III) may vary from 1:1 to 1:7, because the amount of Y depends on the amount of N available in X for the formation of the salt. The radicals R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, e R6 in the general formula (II) are represented by: R1?H, CF3, CH3, OCH3, NH2, halogen; R2?H, CH3, NH2, halogen, NH—CHCH3(CH2)3N(C2H5)(CH2CH2OH), CH(OH)-2(C5H11N), NH—R7—N—(C2H5)2; R3?H, m-OC6H4CF3, NH2; R4?H, CH3, OCH3, NH2, halogen; R5?H, CH3, CF3, NH2, halogen; R6?H, CF3, CH3, NH2, halogen, NH—R8—N—(C2H5)2, NHCH(CH3)(CH2)3NH2; R7?(CH2)2, (CH2)3, CHCH3CH2, (CH2)4, (CH2)5, CHCH3(CH2)3(CH2)6, (CH2)8, (CH2)10, (CH2)12; R8?CHCH3(CH2)3, CHCH3(CH2)CHCH3, (CH2)2, (CH2)3, (CH2)6, (CH2)3O(CH2)3.
