Abstract Malaria is perhaps one of the most lethal infectious diseases that have exterminated nearly half a billion population of the world. Growing resistance of malarial strains to artemisinin therapy, the only available viable cure for malaria, has made the situation grimmer. Hence, identifying new cure for malaria is the need of the hour. Our commentary discusses the advent and contribution of diversity oriented synthesis (DOS) in the drug discovery efforts towards developing cure for malaria. DOS based on chemical genetics focusses on design and synthesis of molecular libraries which covers large tracts of biologically relevant chemical space. Herein, we will discuss the applications, advantages, disadvantages and future directions of DOS with respect to malaria.
