Abstract

A series of 30 adenosine derivatives with three different substituents at the N(6)-position were prepared in order to evaluate their potential to inhibit the pathogenic protozoa Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma brucei in vitro. The rationale for synthesis of these structures was the high probability of interactions with multiple adenosine associated targets and the assumption that N(6)-substitutents should increase stability against adenosine deaminases and allow the molecules to diffuse across parasite membranes. Starting from inosine, the new compounds were prepared as single isomers using a polymer-assisted acylation protocol enabling the straightforward isolation of the target compounds in pure form. Three of the compounds displayed anti-plasmodial and one anti-trypanosomal activity in the single digit micromolar concentration range
