  • Patent number: 8466157
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is the use of HLM-008182, as well as its analogues formed via in-house synthesis, as a potent proteasome inhibitors. A new method was developed for HLM-008182 through a four-step protocol and the method was further optimized to a two step protocol. The synthesis in both protocols was regioselective with TiCl4. The reaction was highly efficient with microwave assisted heating and THF as solvent. The modification around the molecule HLM-008182 established primary SAR, indicating that the proteasome inhibition activity was a function of the 2-side chain.

    Abstract: Provided are 4(1H)-quinolone derivatives effective in inhibiting or eliminating the viability of at least one of the stages in the life-cycle of the malarial parasite, and to show a reduced propensity to induce resistance to the compound by the target parasite. In particular, the compounds can be derivatives of phenoxyethoxy-quinolones, and including, but not only, 7-(2-phenoxyethoxy)quinolin derivatives. These compounds may be administered by themselves, with at least one other derivative compound, or with other antimalarial compounds, to an animal or human subject. The therapeutic compositions can be and formulated to reduce the extent of a Plasmodium infection in the recipient subject, or to reduce the likelihood of the onset or establishment of a Plasmodium infection if administered prior to the parasite contacting the subject. The therapeutic compositions can be formulated to provide an effective single dose amount of an antimalarial compound or multiple doses for administering over a period of time.
