Abstract
Phosphonium lipocations were synthesized and evaluated for inhibition of the development of Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma cruzi, etiological agents of malaria and Chagas disease, respectively. Optimal phthalimides and 1,4-naphthoquinone-based lipocations were active in vitro at mid-high nM concentrations against P. falciparum and low μM concentrations against T. cruzi.
