Design, synthesis and antibacterial evaluation of novel oxazolidinone derivatives nitrogen-containing fused heterocyclic moiety.

A series of novel oxazolidinone derivatives with nitrogen-containing fused heterocyclic moiety were designed and synthesized in this article. Their antibacterial activities were measured against S. aureus, MRSA and MSSA by MIC assay.

Evaluation of the Anti-Mycobacterial Activity of Newly Synthesized (S)-N-(3-(2-Fluoro-4'-(2-Amino-4-Thiazolyl)Biphenyl-4-Yl)-2-Oxo-1,3-Oxazolidie-5-Ylmethyl) Acetamide Derivative in Vitro and in Mycobacterium marinum-Infected Zebrafish.

Through our previous work, we have identified that novel oxazolidinone structures, the biaryloxazolidinone analogues containing a hydrazone moiety, act as promising antibacterial agents against gram-positive bacterial strains. Based on this active structure, in this study, we synthesized a series of novel oxazolidinones and determined their anti-mycobacterial activities in vitro and in Mycobacterium marinum-infected zebrafish. The in vitro anti-mycobacterial assay demonstrated that all of the synthesized compounds have potent efficacy against both H37Rv and clinical mycobacterial isolates.

Structural Basis of AZD9291 Selectivity for EGFR T790M.

AZD9291 (Osimertinib) is highly effective in treating EGFR-mutated non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) with T790M-mediated drug resistance. Despite the remarkable success of AZD9291, its binding pose with EGFR T790M remains unclear. Here, we report unbiased, atomic-level molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in which spontaneous association of AZD9291 with EGFR kinases having WT and T790M mutant gatekeepers was observed.

Design and synthesis of biaryloxazolidinone derivatives containing amide or acrylamide moiety as novel antibacterial agents against Gram-positive bacteria.

A series of novel biaryloxazolidinone derivatives containing amide and acrylamide structure were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial activity. Most compounds generally exhibited potent antibacterial activity with MIC values of 1 μg/mL against S. aureus, MRSA, MSSA, LREF and VRE pathogens, using linezolid and radezolid as positive controls.

Optimization of biaryloxazolidinone as promising antibacterial agents against antibiotic-susceptible and antibiotic-resistant gram-positive bacteria.

We previously discovered a series of novel biaryloxazolidinone analogues bearing a hydrazone moiety with potent antibacterial activity. However, the most potent compound OB-104 exhibited undesirable chemical and metabolic instability. Herein, novel biaryloxazolidinone analogues were designed and synthesized to improve the chemical and metabolic stability.

Design and synthesis of biaryloxazolidinone derivatives containing a rhodanine or thiohydantoin moiety as novel antibacterial agents against Gram-positive bacteria.

Novel biaryloxazolidinone derivatives containing a rhodanine or thiohydantoin moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial activity. The key compounds 7 and 9 were synthesized by the knoevenagel condensation of intermediate aldehyde 5 with rhodanine derivatives 6a-6b. The preliminary study showed that compounds 7, 9 and 10e exhibited potent antibacterial activity with MIC values of 0.

Synthesis and antibacterial activity evaluation of novel biaryloxazolidinone analogues containing a hydrazone moiety as promising antibacterial agents.

A series of linezolid analogues containing a hydrazone moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial activity. Most compounds exhibited more potent antibacterial activity against S.aureus, MRSA, MSSA, LREF and VRE pathogens as compared with linezolid and radezolid.
