Prom the dawn of history man has searched among the natural products of his environment for substances to com- bat his ills. The most widespread of these ills, malaria, today afflicts some 300 million people each year (1). The causative parasite, a protoza, in a somber of the Plasmodium genus and is transmitted through the saliva of the female Anopheles mosquito.

The father of coordination chemistry was Alfred Werner (1866- 1919). Werner's theory was largely responsible for the renewed interest in, and rapid growth of, inorganic chemistry around the turn of the century. He postulated that there were two types of valence, primary and secondary, which correspond, in modern terminology, to oxidation state and coordination number. The primary valences must be either negative ions, neutral molecules or, occasionally even, positive ions (11). He also postulated that the secondary valences are directed in space about the central ion, not only in the solid state, but also when the complex is in solution. …
