1,4‐Epidioxy‐bisabola‐2,12‐diene ( 3 ) and aromatic hydroperoxides ( 4, 5 ) were prepared by photoxidation of γ‐curcumene ( 1 ). Reduction and esterification of 6 and 7 afforded compounds 9 to 10 . All compounds were tested in vitro for antimalarial activity. The activity could not be increased significantly, compared with 3 . The most active compounds, 3 and 9 , did not show in vivo antimalarial activity in mice.
