A novel class of artemisinin analogs, N-alkyl-11-aza-9-desmethylartemisinins 17-29, were synthesized via ozonolysis and acid-catalyzed cyclization of precursor amides 5-16. These amides were prepared through condensation of an activated ester of the known intermediate acid 2 with the corresponding primary amine. The analogs were tested in vitro against W-2 and D-6 strains of Plasmodium falciparum and found in some cases to be more active than artemisinin. A comparison of the in vitro testing methods of Milhous and Makler was conducted and gave similar relative antimalarial activities for these artemisinin analogs. Log P values were determined for most of the compounds, but no apparent correlation between log P and in vitro activity was found.
