Title: Antimalarials. 9. Methylthio- and methylsulfonyl-substituted 9-phenanthrenemethanols. Author: Markovac A, LaMontagne MP. Journal: J Med Chem; 1976 Jul; 19(7):978-82. PubMed ID: 781249. Abstract: Nine di- and trisubstituted 9-phenanthrenemethanols bearing methylthio and methylfulfonyl substituents in the 2 and/or 6 positions of the phenanthrene nucleus were prepared and screened for antimalarial activity against Plasmodium berghei in mice. Six of the nine compounds were curative at or below 160 mg/kg. The most active structures contained a methylthio substituent in combination with two chlorine atoms.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
