2,4-Disubstituted quinoline derivatives were designed based on a 3D-QSAR study, synthesized and evaluated for antimalarial activity. A large dataset of 178 quinoline derivatives was used to perform a 3D-QSAR study using CoMFA and CoMSIA models. PLS analysis provided statistically validated results for CoMFA (r2ncv = 0.969, q2 = 0.677, r2cv = 0.682) and CoMSIA (r2ncv = 0.962, q2 = 0.741, r2cv = 0.683) models. Two series of a total of 40 2,4-disubstituted quinoline derivatives were designed with amide (quinoline-4-carboxamide) and secondary amine (4-aminoquinoline) linkers at the -C4 position of the quinoline ring. For the purpose of selecting better compounds for synthesis with good pEC50 values, activity prediction was carried out using CoMFA and CoMSIA models. Finally, a total of 10 2,4-disubstituted quinoline derivatives were synthesized, and screened for their antimalarial activity based on the reduction of parasitaemia. Compound #5 with amide linker and compound #19 with secondary amine linkers at the -C4 position of the quinoline ring showed maximum reductions of 64% and 57%, respectively, in the level of parasitaemia. In vivo screening assay confirmed and validated the findings of the 3D-QSAR study for the design of quinoline derivatives.
