The structure-activity relationship of the anti-malarial substance 3 having a 6-carbomethoxymethyl-3-methoxy-1,2-dioxane structure was studied. The ester portion of the peroxide 3, showing little in vivo efficacy in malaria-infected mice in spite of the potent in vitro activity, was hydrolyzed in serum to afford an inactive free acid 4. The amide analogues (8 and 9) robust to mouse serum were disclosed to exhibit in vivo anti-malarial potency.
