Organic Letters

Abstract

With the aim of finding new natural product antimalarials, the novel indole alkaloids flinderole A-C were found to have selective antimalarial activities with IC(50) values between 0.15-1.42 microM. Flinderole A was isolated from the Australian plant Flindersia acuminata and flinderoles B and C from the Papua New Guinean plant F. amboinensis. Flinderoles A-C contain an unprecedented rearranged skeleton compared to their related isomers of the borreverine class of compounds.
