The ki10n-ri3biological activity of D-cycloserine (la), a broad spectrum :mtibiotic, led use to examine derivatives of this compound for antimalarial activity.

We have previously4 reported the synthesis of several derivatives of cycloserine having general structures l b (R = 3-hvdrosy-3-chlorobenzyl) and l e (R' = Ph3C). The pathway by which this was done is shown in Scheme I. In this report, several new Schiff bases (2) are described which can be reduced with KaBH4 to ( 1 ) Suppoi l w l i i i pari 1j.v ( ' c ~ ~ i L r a ,I).i-49-1!43-A1 ~l L)-2993 from tlie U.
