Synthesis and biological evaluation of manzamine analogues

Org Lett. 2006 Jul 20;8(15):3407-9. doi: 10.1021/ol061320b.

Abstract

[Structure: see text] The synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of analogues of manzamine A, representing partial structures of the pentacyclic ABCDE diamine core, is described. All new compounds were screened against Plasmodium falciparum and demonstrated attenuated antimalarial activity relative to that of manzamine A.
