Description |
In an attempt to synthesize pentamidine-aplysinopsin hybrid molecule 25, a lead molecule 8 (containing Z-configured aplysinopsin moiety) was identified for antileishmanial activity. Optimization
of lead 8 provided 24 (containing E-configured aplysinopsin) possessing 10 times more activity and 401-fold less toxicity than the drug pentamidine in cell based assays. Synthesis of 24 was possible,
surprisingly, because of two innate reactivities of indole-3-carbaldehyde which provided it in diastereoand regio-selectively pure form without recourse to the long reaction pathway.
