Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, antimalarial and antitubercular activity of acetylenic chalcones

TL;DR: The antimalarial data for this series suggests that growth inhibition of the W2 strain of Plasmodium falciparum can be imparted by the introduction of a methoxy group ortho to the acetylenic group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, Structure and in Vitro Biological Screening of Palladium(II) Complexes of Functionalised Salicylaldimine Thiosemicarbazones as Antimalarial and Anticancer Agents

TL;DR: A series of mononuclear salicylaldiminato(thiosemicarbazone)palladium(II) complexes of general formula [Pd(saltsc-R)PPh 3 ], {H 2 saltsc-r = sicylaldehyde thiosembrazone; R = H (5), 3tert-butyl (6), 3-methoxy (7), 5-chloro (8)) have been synthesized as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fucoxanthin, tetraprenylated toluquinone and toluhydroquinone metabolites from Sargassum heterophyllum inhibit the in vitro growth of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: Fucoxanthin and sargaquinal showed good antiplasmodial activity toward a chloroquine-sensitive strain (D10) of Plasmodium falciparum of Sargassum heterophyllum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiplasmodial activity of aporphine alkaloids and sesquiterpene lactones from Liriodendron tulipifera L.

TL;DR: In this paper, the active constituents of the traditionally used antimalarial plant Liriodendron tulipifera by antiplasmodial-assay guided fractionation were identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of gold(I) thiosemicarbazone complexes for antimalarial activity

TL;DR: The in vitro antimalarial data for gold(I) TSC complexes suggests that coordination of gold( I) to TSCs enhanced their efficacy against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum and their inhibition of the parasite cysteine protease falCipain-2.
