Mitochondria perform several functions in the cell, and dysfunction has been implicated in various organ systems and disease states, including neurodegenerative disorders and cancers. The targeting of small molecules to the mitochondria can help to probe and better understand this relationship. This bromononane triphenylphosphine (TPP) tag is conjugated to small molecules to localize them to the mitochondria in cells where the TPP cations facilitate both cellular uptake and accumulation in the mitochondria.

We investigated a chemical strategy to boost the trypanocidal activity of 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,4-DHBA)- and salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM)-based trypanocides with triphenylphosphonium and quinolinium lipophilic cations (LC). Three series of LC conjugates were synthesized that were active in the submicromolar (5a-d
