2-[5-(4-Amidinophenyl)-furan-2-yl]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridi ne-6-carboxamidine acetate salt (7) was synthesized from 2-[5-(4-cyanophenyl)-furan-2-yl]-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-6-carbonitri
Dicationic biphenyl benzimidazole derivatives as antiprotozoal agents (Publications)
A series of biphenyl benzimidazoles diamidines 6a-i were synthesized from their respective diamidoximes, through the bis-O-acetoxyamidoxime followed by hydrogenation in glacial acetic acid/ethanol in
Azaterphenyl diamidines as antileishmanial agents (Publications)
Eighteen diamidino azaterphenyls and analogues were evaluated as anti-leishmanials; nine of the compounds gave IC50 values less than 1 microM, five exhibited values less than 0.40 microM, and two gave
Synthesis and antiparasitic evaluation of bis-2,5-[4-guanidinophenyl]thiophenes (Publications)
A series of bis-2,5-[4-guanidinophenyl]thiophenes were prepared in a five step process starting from 2,5-bis[trimethylstannyl]thiophene. The compounds were evaluated in vitro against Trypanosoma bruce
