Abstract:
Bis-aryl diamidoxime compounds, such as 2,5-bis [4-hydroxy and 4-O-alkylamidinophenyl] furans, can be prepared from 2,5-bis tri-alkylstannanes via a one step palladium-catalyzed cross reaction. Bis-aryl diamidoxime compounds, such as 2,5-bis [4-hydroxy and 4-O-alkylamidinophenyl]furans, are useful as therapeutic compounds. The disclosed process is scalable, simpler, more economic and more feasible than other presently known methods of preparing 2,5-bis [4-hydroxy and 4-O-alkylamidinophenyl]furans and other bis-aryl diamidoxime compounds.

Abstract:
A number of aromatic mono- and bis-amidines are capable of blocking cell fusion induced by Respiratory Syncytial (RS) virus. Suitable amidino compounds include those selected from the group consisting of 1-4-di(4-amidinophenoxy)-2-butanol; bis(5-amidino-2-benzimidazolyl)methane; 1,2-bis(5-amidino-2-benzimidazolyl)ethane; 5-amidino-indole; 5-amidinobenzimidazole, 5-amidino-1-methylindole and 5-amidino-1-(4-amidinobenzyl)indole. The most powerful of the compounds, bis(5-amidino-2-benzimidazolyl)methane (BABIM), is able to achieve complete suppression of syncytium formation at a concentration of 1 .mu.M. Inhibition occurs in RS virus-infected Hep-2 cells as well as CV-1 cells. BABIM also causes a significant retardation of RS virus penetration, but does not interfere with adsorption. Addition of the amidines after the penetration of RS virus does not affect single cycle yields. The compounds may be used in the prophylactic control of RS virus in man.
Abstract:
Novel dicationic 3,5-diphenylisoxazole compounds are described. Synthetic routes to these novel compounds are provided. Several of the compounds displayed in vitro activity versus Trypanosoma brucei brucei and Plasmodium falciparum comparable to that of furamidine. A majority of the novel compounds also were less toxic to VERO cells than furamidine.
