In vivo antifilarial activity of some cyclic and acylic alcohols
Agarwal, Alka,Awasthi, Satish K.,Murthy
experimental part, p. 430 - 434 (2012/04/18)
The filarial nematodes, Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, and Brugia timori are the causative agents of lymphatic filariasis. 2-Substituted propanol, cyclohexanol, and cyclooctanol compounds were evaluated for microfilaricidal and macrofilaricidal activity in vivo against Acanthocheilonema viteae and Litomosoides carinii in rodents. In the cyclohexanol series, 2-(piperidin-1-yl) cyclohexanol (2b) showed 88.9% macrofilaricidal activity against A. viteae in vivo, while cyclooctanol series, 2-(4- benzyl piperdin-1-yl) cyclooctanol (2f) showed 100% macrofilaricidal activity against A. viteae. Further, compounds 1-(furan-2-ylamino) ethanol (4a) and 1-(4-benzylpiperidin- 1-yl)-ethyl acetate (5b) showed 81.3% and 83.4% macrofilaricidal activity, respectively, against the same parasite. Interestingly, compounds 2f and 4a showed significant sterilization of female worms in A. viteae. However, these compounds were found inactive against L. carinii. Therefore, the new class of compounds appeared to have promising antifilarial activity.
Amino alcohols in organocatalysed acylation and deacylation: The effect of dialkylamino substituents on the rate

supporting information; experimental part, p. 107 - 112 (2009/04/08)
In alcohols and esters, a neighbouring dialkylamino group can enhance the reactivity towards acylation and deacylation, respectively, that is, such amino alcohols can act as transacylation catalysts like DMAP. This effect is dependent on the number of (carbon) spacer atoms, flexibility of the molecule and the presence and position of further heteroatoms. Based on this effect, the site selective acylation and deacylation of desmycosin, a macrocycle antibiotic possessing an amino sugar moiety, is described.
