Of the 50+ kalihinane diterpenoids reported to date, only five had been tested for antimalarial activity, in spite of the fact that kalihinol A is the most potent among the members of the larger family of antimalarial isocyanoterpenes. We have validated a strategy designed to access many of the kalihinanes with a 12-step enantioselective synthesis of kalihinol B, the tetrahydrofuran isomer of kalihinol A (a tetrahydropyran). Kalihinol B shows similarly high potency against chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum.
在迄今为止报道的50多种卡里希纳二萜类化合物中,尽管卡里希醇A是较大的抗疟异氰基萜类化合物家族成员中最有效的,但只有5种进行了抗疟活性测试。我们已经验证了一种策略,该策略通过对卡里希醇B(卡里希醇A的四氢呋喃异构体,一种四氢吡喃)进行12步对映选择性合成,来获取许多卡里希纳类化合物。卡里希醇B对氯喹耐药的恶性疟原虫显示出同样高的效力。
