(+)-Artemisinin
• also known as Qinghaosu (Chinese: 青蒿素), and its derivatives are a group of drugs that possess the most rapid action of all current drugs against Plasmodium falciparum malaria
• The starting compound artemisinin is isolated from the plant Artemisia annua, sweet wormwood, a herb employed in Chinese traditional medicine.
• Recent advances in flow chemistry and photochemistry have highlighted an efficient method for the synthesis of artemisinin from its more plentiful biosynthetic precursor artemisinic acid, which is reduced to dihydroartemisinic acid before reacting it with singlet oxygen
