We have designed arylfurylacryl-substituted benzophenones as non-thiol farnesyltransferase inhibitors utilizing a novel aryl binding site of farnesyltransferase. These compounds display activity in the low nanomolar range. We have designed arylfurylacryl-

Replacement of the 2,5-disubstituted furyl residue present in the known antimalarial agents 8 by other aryl residues resulted in a more or less reduced antimalarial activity in most cases. The only exemption was the 2,4-thienylene compound 11a displaying activity with an IC50 value of 120 nM. In conclusion, the 2,5-furylene compound 8e remains to represent the most active antimalarial agent in this series of farnesyltransferase inhibitors.
