Arterolan is a chemical compound from the group of ozonides and adamantanes .

It is a potential antimalarial agent developed by Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV) and tested by Ranbaxy Laboratories . From a chemical as well as a pharmacological point of view, Arterolan has some special features, for example it contains a 1,2,4-trioxolane ring (ozonide) and an adamantane system attached to it. In combination with the bis-quinoline piperaquine, it has already advanced to clinical phase III. It works by inhibiting PfATP6 , a calcium ATPase of the malaria pathogen P. falciparum , which influences calcium transport in the endoplasmic reticulum of the muscles ( sarcoplasm ) .

According to Livemint, MMV decided to discontinue funding for the project after preliminary data presented at a conference in 2006 were not very satisfactory when compared to other drug candidates. At that point, Ranbaxy had spent around $ 16 million. Despite the discontinued support of MMV, Ranbaxy is continuing the development of the drug.

Extraction and presentation

The synthesis of Arterolan is based on the Gries coozonolysis of a mixture of adamantane-2-one- O- methyloxime and 4-carbomethoxycyclohexanone to form cis -adamantane-spiro-3'-8'-methoxycarbonylmethyl-1 ', 2', 4 '-trioxaspiro [4.5] decane. The latter is hydrolyzed to cis -adamantane-2-spiro-3'-8'-carboxymethyl-1 ', 2', 4'-trioxaspiro [4.5] decane, followed by mild amidation with the formation of an ozonide intermediate, which by treatment with 2-methylpropane-1,2-diamine finally gives the target compound.
