Design and synthesis of Trypanosoma brucei active 1-alkyloxy and 1-benzyloxyadamantano 2-guanylhydrazones

ChemMedChem. 2009 Jul;4(7):1059-62. doi: 10.1002/cmdc.200900019.

Abstract

Treating African trypanosomiasis: The synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 1-alkyloxy and 1-benzyloxyadamantano 2-guanylhydrazones, their 1-dioxa congeners and two 1-benzyladamantano 2-guanylhydrazones is reported. Preliminary structure-activity relationship data were elucidated and lead compounds suitable for further optimization were discovered.
