Antitrichomonal activity of selected 2,4-dinitro-phenylhydrazones and phenylosazones of sugars was investigated in vitro and in vivo and compared with the activity of tinidazole, an effective therapeutic agent. In experimental infections with Trichomonas vaginalis and Tritrichomonas foetus in mice glycolaldehyde-2,4-dinitro-phenylhydrazone acetate and 2,3-diacetylglycerolaldehyde-2,4-dinitro-phenylhydrazone exhibited an antiparasitic effect slightly inferior to that of tinidazole. Structure-activity relationships are discussed. On the basis of the results obtained the chemotherapeutic value of the mentioned substances seems to be promising.
