New Amides Containing Selenium as Potent Leishmanicidal Agents Targeting Trypanothione Reductase

Mikel Etxebeste-Mitxeltorena et al.

Summary: Two new series of selenocyanate and diselenide derivatives containing amide moieties were synthesized and evaluated for leishmanicidal activity. Eleven compounds exhibited excellent activity with EC50 values lower than the reference drug miltefosine. The most potent and selective compounds showed high selectivity indices when tested against THP-1 monocytic cells. These derivatives could potentially be leading candidates for leishmanicidal drugs.
