| abstract |
Small molecules comprised of spiroindolinone analogues are provided. Some spiroindolinones are provided with a particular relative stereochemistry in which the indolone carbonyl and all three hydrogens are on the same face of the central pyrrolidine ring. A stereoselective method of synthesis is provided for making some of the spiroindolinones described above. Formulations and medicaments are also provided that are directed to the treatment of disease, such as, for example, fungal infections. Therapeutics are also provided containing a therapeutically effective dose of one or more small molecule compounds, present either as pharmaceutically effective salt or in pure form, including, but not limited to, formulations for oral, intravenous, or intramuscular administration. |
