The efficacy of new 2,5-dihydroxybenzyl derivatives against Trypanosoma cruzi, Leishmania infantum and Leishmania braziliensis

Conclusion: This evidence suggests that the anti-parasitic activity observed in these analogs is affected by the size of the group at the 4-position of the second ring, but not related with electronic factors.This study identified hit compounds with the potential to target several kinetoplastid parasites.
