A means and method for treating malaria using a spiro or dispiro 1,2,4-trioxolane is described. The preferred 1,2,4-trioxolanes include a spiroadamantane group on one side of the trioxolane group, and a spirocyclohexyl or spiropiperidyl ring on the other side of the trioxolane group, whereby the spirocyclohexyl ring is preferably functionalized or substituted at the 4-position or a spiropiperidyl ring that is functionalized or substituted at the nitrogen atom. In comparison to artemisinin semisynthetic derivatives, the compounds of this invention are structurally simple, easy to synthesize, non-toxic, and potent against malarial parasites. |
