Starting from 4,4'-diamino-diphenylsulfone (DDS) as a lead structure, new 2-substituted analogues as well as new 2-substituted 4-alkylamino-4'-amino diphenylsulfones have been designed and synthesized in different ways. This has led to compounds the inhibitory activity of which against 7,8-dihydropteroic acid synthase of plasmodia and mycobacteria is clearly superior to that of sulfadoxine and in most cases to that of DDS. Of special interest is 4'-amino-4-n-propylamino-2-methyl-diphenylsulfone. Together with inhibitors of 7,8-dihydrofolate reductase in vitro and in vivo it possesses a marked synergistic inhibitory activity against plasmodia. In contrast to DDS in doses up to 200 mg/kg p.o. (cat) no methemoglobin formation is observed. The compound has been selected for further studies.
