Abstract
.) at different position of the template. The designed compounds were docked with Plasmodium falciparum dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (Pf-DHODH), giving compound D9 the highest binding energy. The designed compounds were further screened for their drug-likeness, where they all pass Lipinski's RO5. All the compounds show good skin permeability coefficient and have low Gastrointestinal absorption while few compounds D1, D2, D3, D14, and D15 inhibiting the CYP1A2.
