Abstract
Aminochloroquinoline–kojic acid hybrids were synthesized and evaluated for β-haematin inhibition and antiplasmodial activity against drug resistant (K1) and sensitive (3D7) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Compound 7j was the most potent compound in both strains (IC503D7=0.004μM; IC50K1=0.03μM) and had the best β-haematin inhibition activity (0.07 IC50 equiv vs 1.91 IC50 equiv for chloroquine). One compound 8c was found to be equipotent in both strains (IC50=0.04μM).
