Design and synthesis of amidoxime derivatives for orally potent C-alkylamidine-based antimalarial agents
Résumé
Within the frame of the design of prodrug candidates to deliver a C-alkylamidine antimalarial agent, we showed that specific O-substitutions were needed on the alkylamidoxime structure. Among the newly synthesized molecules, bis-oxadiazolone and bis-O-methylsulfonylamidoxime derivatives induced a complete clearance of parasitemia in mice after oral administration.
