We describe herein the antileishmanial activity of 1,3-bis(aryloxy)propan-2-amines, prepared in four simple steps from epichlorohydrin. Among the evaluated compounds, three (4o, 4q, and 4r) displayed considerable activity against Leishmania amazonensis promastigote forms, with IC50 values below 10 μM. We also analyzed the effects of the nature and the position of ring substituent on activity. Two amines (4m and 4o) showed excellent profiles in the treatment of L. amazonensis-infected macrophages, reducing the parasite burden by more than 95% in tested concentrations.
Hypocholesterolemic activity of 1,3 bis(substituted phenoxy) 2 propanones

A series of 1,3 bis (substituted phenoxy) 2 propanones was found to be active hypocholesterolemic agents at 10 mg/kg/day. The p chloro and p methyl substituted phenoxy compounds possess the highest activity. These compounds did not possess the estrogenic and antifertility activities of the related previously reported derivatives of the bis (β phenylethyl) ketone series. The 1,3 bis (p methylphenoxy) 2 propanone (7) also lowered serum triglycerides and glycerol which appeared to be due to increased levels of serum lipase and reduced activity of liver lipase. There was reduced incorporation of free fatty acids into complex lipids by the liver. Cholesterol was excreted faster in the treated animals.
