The promise of hybrid antimalarial agents and the precedence set by the antimalarial drug ferroquine prompted us to design ferrocene-pyrimidine conjugates. Herein, we report the synthesis, electrochemistry and anti-plasmodial evaluation of ferrocenyl-pyrimidine conjugates against chloroquine susceptible NF54 strain of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Also their physicochemical properties have been studied. (C) 2015 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
