title: Chemotherapy of leishmaniasis part III: synthesis and bioevaluation of novel aryl substituted terpenyl pyrimidines as antileishmanial agents.
abstract: Some aryl substituted terpenyl pyrimidines 4 (a-p) have been synthesized using novel synthetic methods. The compounds were screened for in vitro antileishmanial activity against promastigotes. Compounds 4c, 4i and 4l showed IC(50) values as 35, 35 and 25 microg ml(-1).
