Abstract

This invention includes a fluorophore-tagged antimalarial represented by the following structural formula (1) or a salt thereof. This invention relates to the synthesis of fluorophore-tagged antimalarials and describes the synthesis of a fluorophore-tagged antimalarial. These fluorophore-tagged antimalarials can be used to image live cells to determine the location of the antimalarial in the cell, identify drug resistance and growth related pathways in Plasmodium isolates, identify new drug targets and chemo-sensitizers to reverse drug resistance.
