A number of aliphatic diamines and amino-alcohols and several of their alkyl, acyl and carbamoyl derivatives, have been synthesised and evaluated in vitro on cultures of Leishmania spp. In general, diamine derivatives resulted to be more potent than their amino-alcohol or amino-ether analogues. Two diamine derivatives (8b and 9d) and one amino-alcohol (6a) showed a fair inhibition of parasite growth, at concentrations below 10 microg/mL, with potencies close to that of the reference drug, amphotericin B. Some SAR considerations have been deduced. ..more

Title: Leishmanicidal activity of some aliphatic diamines and amino-alcohols.
Abstract: A number of aliphatic diamines and amino-alcohols and several of their alkyl, acyl and carbamoyl derivatives, have been synthesised and evaluated in vitro on cultures of Leishmania spp. In general, diamine derivatives resulted to be more potent than their amino-alcohol or amino-ether analogues. Two diamine derivatives (8b and 9d) and one amino-alcohol (6a) showed a fair inhibition of parasite growth, at concentrations below 10 microg/mL, with potencies close to that of the reference drug, amphotericin B. Some SAR considerations have been deduced.
