INTRODUCTION
Background to the Disease
Malaria is an age-old disease and one of the commonest
causes of illness in the world. It is estimated that about 2.5
billion people living in malarious zones are at risk and that
300-500 million clinical cases of malaria occur each year [1].
The disease is transmitted in a two-stage process by the bite
of an infected female anopheline mosquito which can transfer
to the human host four species of parasite, Plasmodium
malariae, P. ovale, P. vivax and P. falciparum [2]. The
parasites first invade the liver and then as merozoites
penetrate erythrocytes where they proliferate and eventually
burst the parasitized cells releasing about 25 daughter
merozoites which then invade more erythrocytes so initiating
a new infectious cycle. Some merozoites evolve into male
and female gametes which undergo fertilization after being
drawn into the gut of a second mosquito when it bites the
infected host. The resulting sporozoites are then injected via
the salivary glands into a fresh host through another bite
thereby maintaining transmission.
The regions most affected by malaria are the northern part
of South America, Central America, Africa below the Sahara,
the Indian subcontinent, South East Asia, Vietnam,
Indochina, Indonesia and the southern rim of the Pacific
basin. Most patients suffer from uncomplicated malaria,
characterized by fever, anemia and debilitation. However,

Semi-synthetic Derivatives
In the case of yingzhaosu A (13), a synthetic route to the
natural product based on (-)-carvone (15) as starting material
[30] was adapted for preparing in some 10 or so steps
essentially the surrogate molecules arteflene or Ro 42-1611
(16) and Ro 41-3823 (17) as pure enantiomers in addition to
other analogues [31] Fig. (5). In comparison, derivatives of
artemisinin were much easier to come by, merely entailing
the initial reduction of the freely available and crystalline
natural product to the epimeric and -lactols (18) which
were then converted to esters and ethers by standard
procedures Fig. (6). Scores of semi-synthetic derivatives of
18 were produced of which the most important are -arteether
(19), -artemether (20), sodium -artelinate (21) and artesunic acid (22). All have antimalarial activities
commensurate with that of the parent 14 [32, 33].

Tricyclic Trioxanes
On inspecting the artemisinin skeleton several questions
arise. How many and which of the four rings (A,B,C, and D)
are necessary for high activity? Is the boat conformation of
the trioxane ring really necessary? Would a peroxide do as
well? Is chirality important? What sort of peripheral
substituents are required to bolster activity? It should be
mentioned straightaway that the peroxide linkage in 14 is a
critical element, since its metabolite deoxyartemisinin (23)
having one O-atom less is without activity [34] Fig. (7).
Moreover, the lactone function is a double liability in that it
offers a site for hydrolytic degradation and also constitutes an
inherent therapeutic weakness as attested by the 8-fold greater
activity of deoxoartemisinin (24) [35].

Bicyclic Trioxanes
As the foregoing tricyclic trioxanes are not really so easy
to prepare, a program was undertaken to devise syntheses of
simpler bicyclic versions. For reasons of procedural
convenience, three types of bicyclic trioxane were prepared,
exemplified by the
cis-fused dihydronaphthalene,
cyclohexene and cyclopentene compounds 34, 37, and 41
Fig. (9). In spite of apparent structural similarities, the first
two, and their derivatives 35, 36, 38-40, created something
of a surprise by displaying little activity. The first set, 34-

Unlike artemisinin, the cis-fused bicyclic structures of 4144 are flexible, permitting the trioxane ring to undergo
inversion between two chair conformations. Clearly, the cisfused, almost planar cyclopentene and the spirocyclopentane
rings are crucial features of the pharmacophore in these fully
synthetic analogues (v. infra). Another structural requirement

MODE OF ACTION
The above mentioned natural and synthetic trioxanes and
peroxides are chemically very different from the traditional
aminoalkyl substituted quinoline remedies such as quinine
and chloroquine. The former are neutral species whereas the
latter are bases. Both classes of drug are schizonticides acting
on the parasite within the infected erythrocyte, but they do
so by entirely different mechanisms. Curiously enough, the
receptor in both cases has been identified as heme. Since
heme is achiral it is understandable that the configuration of
an enantiomerically pure antimalarial has no bearing on
potency.
In order to be effective, an antimalarial must first of all
diffuse into the red blood cell and interact with heme. It is
now known from a large body of evidence that artemisinin
(14), its lactol derivatives 18-22 and peroxidic antimalarials
kill the malarial parasite in the blood of the host by a
stepwise process of chemical induction Fig. (6). During the
trophozote stage of the intraerythrocytic cycle the parasites
invade the red blood cells and ingest hemoglobin to provide
amino acids for growth. After proteolysis the spent prosthetic
group, heme, because of its solubility and toxicity to the
parasite, is eliminated immediately by oxidation and
polymerization to the insoluble malarial pigment, hemozoin
[55]. When the host is treated with quinine or chloroquine,
it seems that polymerization of heme is pre-empted by

The nature of the latter, and how it forms took some time
to be delineated. Experiments performed with hemin and
artemisinin confirmed their interaction to form an unknown
adduct after generating an unidentified oxy radical [59-62].
Artemisinin was thought to alkylate heme and parasite
proteins, but no structures were proposed [63]. It was also
discovered that the administration of radiolabeled -arteether,

15 min gave furan-acetate 68 and the hydroxydeoxyartemisinin 69 in 78 and 17% yield Fig. (14).
Repeating the experiment in the presence of cyclohexene (63)
merely altered the yield of the two products to 84 and 1-8%
respectively. No traces of 64 or deoxyartemisinin (23) were
detected. -Artemether (19) gave a similar result [68] Fig.
(15). It reacted in 5 min. isomerizing to the corresponding
furan-acetate 70, the hydroxy-deoxyartemsinin derivative 71,
and an epimeric mixture of formyl diketones 72 in yields of
32, 23, and 16%. Running the reaction in cyclohexene
improved the yields of the same three products to 36, 30 and
19%.
The Intermediacy of Carbon Radicals
The foregoing product compositions are strongly
indicative of the intermediacy of radicals in their formation.
In fact, there are many precedents for the redox behavior of
ferrous ion towards cyclic peroxides which induces
decomposition by forming radicals [69-72]. In the present
instance, ferrous ion functions in the customary manner
complexing with the O-O bond of 53 with concomitant
single electron transfer Fig. (13). Scission of the resulting
oxy radical 73 is driven by the formation of the ester function
creating simultaneously the terminal pentanoate radical 74.
Recuperation of the electron by ferric ion furnishes 75, which
probably for reasons of entropy is unable to cyclize to the
lactone 76. Instead, ambient chloride ion and to a lesser
degree water, attack 75 giving the chloro and hydroxy
products 65 and 66. Overall, the conversion of 53 to 65 and
66 can be considered as an isomerization with adjunction of

and ED90 values are 4-6 times bigger. Clearly, the
epimer 151 is 4-7 times less effective than its -epimer 14.
The persistence of some activity may be due to some
epimerization to 14 under the test conditions. Comparison of
the X-ray data of 14 and 151 reveals that the two molecules
are superimposable, except for the lactone ring in 151 which
is slightly distorted to alleviate congestion between the methyl group and the peroxide bond. Thus the difference in
activity arises solely from the orientation of the methyl
substituent on the lactone ring.
