Fluoroalkyl ethers (4) of dihydroartemisinin (2) have been prepared by reaction of fluoroalkyl alcohols with dihydroartemisinin by different methods (BF3,Et2O or TMSCl catalysis or Mitsunobu reaction). Ethers 4a-d derived from primary fluoroalkyl alcohols were obtained in moderate to good yields by these methods. Ethers 4e-j have been prepared from fluoroalkyl secondary and tertiary alcohols and phenol using the Mitsunobu reaction. Although in vitro antimalarial activities of ethers toward Plasmodium falciparum W-2 asiatic strain are moderate, in vivo activities against Plasmodium berghei (NT 173) are excellent.
