The synthesis of the mefloquine analogue )-alpha-(7'-trifluoromethylqu
inolin-4'-yl)methanol (1) from 4-bromo-7-trifluoromethylquinoline and
N-(hex-5-enyl)phthalimide through thylquinolin-4''-yl)oxiran-2'-yl]but
yl}phthalimide 1''-oxide is reported. naphthyridin-4-yl)-alpha-(piperi
din-2'-yl)methanol (2) was prepared by similar procedures. In tests ag
ainst the K-1 isolate of Plasmodium falciparum, compound (1) proved th
e more active (IC50 99 nM).
