Product Information

• Name: 6-Methoxy-α-(5-vinyl-2-quinuclidinyl)-4-quinolinemethanol
• Synonyms: (9S)-6'-Methoxycinchonan-9-ol(+)-Quinidine(8R,9S)-Quinidine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 6-Methoxy-α-(5-vinyl-2-quinuclidinyl)-4-quinolinemethanol is an antimalarial agent, derived from synthetic processes aimed at enhancing the activity of quinoline-based compounds. This compound acts by interacting with the heme moieties in the parasitic digestive vacuole, disrupting the detoxification of heme products, which is essential for parasite survival. By interfering with this process, the compound effectively causes toxic heme accumulation, leading to the death of the Plasmodium species responsible for malaria.
