Abstract

Manzamine A represents an important lead structure for the development of novel antimalarial chemotherapies. The synthesis and biological evaluation of a group of simplified analogues of manzamine A, which were designed to examine the roles of the A and D rings and of both the relative stereochemistry and the orientation of the beta-carboline heterocycle on the antimalarial activity of manzamine A, are described.
