title: Secondary amines as new pharmacophores for macrofilaricidal drug design.
abstract: Several secondary amines exhibit promising macrofilaricidal response in vivo through oral route of administration against Acanthocheilonema viteae in which N-hexylcyclohexylamine (1) shows 100% macrofilaricidal activity while a tertiary amine such as 9 elicits predominantly microfilaricidal (93%) response.
