title: Evaluation of the antimalarial activity of new compounds against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro, and Plasmodium berghei in vivo.
abstract: Various hydrazones of thiophene carboxaldehyde were tested in vitro on two Plasmodium falciparum strains and in vivo on mice experimentally infected with Plasmodium berghei. These hydrazones were obtained by condensation of appropriate hydrazines with thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde (series 1), thiophene-3- carboxaldehyde (series 2) and 5-Nitrothiophene-2-carboxaldehyde (series 3). Compounds of series 3, 5-Nitrothiophene-2-carboxaldehyde presented significant effects in vitro. In vivo tests confirmed the antimalarial activity observed in vitro with two compounds of this series.
