Abstract
Iminoctadine (1,17-diguanidino-9-azaheptadecane), isolated from a mixture of polyamines and guanidines known as guazatine that is used in agriculture as a fungicide, showed interesting activity as human antifungal agent and PAO inhibitor. In this paper, we propose a straightforward synthetic strategy for obtaining pure iminoctadine tris(trifluoroacetate) in high overall yield.
