Miscellaneous Compounds

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 68 / 2))

Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to review work described in the recent chemical and biological literature on the miscellaneous compound types for which antiplasmodial activity is claimed, but which lie outside the main antimalarial series reviewed in the other chapters of this book. Most of the compounds described either have not been suitable for evaluation in man or have been insufficiently investigated for their activity in malaria to be definitively assessed. The chapter is divided into two sections, the first covering new work on established series for which the earlier data have already been adequately reviewed, and the second covering work on new series shown to have antiplasmodial activity. For most of the compounds discussed in this chapter only limited reports are available on their antimalarial properties, while some are found only as patent references for which testing details are often scanty.
