The substitution of 6-fluoroquinolines was modified in ring positions 2 and 4. The new compounds were tested in vitro for their activities against a sensitive and a multidrug resistant strain of Plasmodium falciparum. Some physicochemical parametres were calculated (log P, log D, ligand efficiency) or determined experimentally (permeability). The most promising compounds were tested for their in vivo activity against Plasmodium berghei in a mouse model. The 6-fluoro-2-{4-[(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)methyl]phenyl}-N-[2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl]quinoline-4-carboxamide possessed proper physicochemical properties and showed high antiplasmodial activity in vitro (IC; 50; ≤ 0.0029 µM) and in vivo (99.6% activity).
