Abstract

A variety of 1,2,4,5,7-pentoxocane and 1,2,4,5-tetroxane derivatives were prepared as potential peroxide antimalarial agents. In both series of cyclic peroxides, the steric and electronic effects of the substituents attached to the peroxide ring exert a remarkable influence on the antimalarial activity. For some cyclic peroxides, which were found to be highly effective in vitro, the study in vivo has been also conducted.
