Synthesis and Antimalarial Activities of Several Fluorinated Artemisinin Derivatives

Abstract
The carbonyl groups in several artemisinin derivatives were converted into geminal difluorinated compounds on treatment with diethylaminosulfur trifluoride. A number of other mono- and polyfluorinated artemisinin derivatives were prepared. Their in vitro antimalarial activities were all equal to or greater than the nonfluorinated analogs or precursors.
