Antimalarial Properties of some Guanidine Derivatives

Abstract

IT has been shown by two of us1 that many aromatic primary and aromatic–aliphatic secondary amines can react with cyanguanidine to yield N1-aryl-N2-amidine-ureas and N1-aryl-N1-alkyl-N2-amidine-ureas respectively, under certain experimental conditions. (The reaction between the amines and cyanguanidine leading to arylbiguanides is already known.)
