Structure activity relationship of N-1 substituted 1,5-naphthyrid-2-one analogs of oxabicyclooctane-linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents (Part-9).

Novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) are the newest members of gyrase inhibitor broad-spectrum antibacterial agents, represented by the most advanced member, gepotidacin, a 4-amino-piperidine linked NBTI, which is undergoing phase III clinical trials for treatment of urinary tract infections (UTI). We have extensively reported studies on oxabicyclooctane linked NBTIs, including AM-8722. The present study summarizes structure activity relationship (SAR) of AM-8722 leading to identification of 7-fluoro-1-cyanomethyl-1,5-naphthyridin-2-one based NBTI (16, AM-8888) with improved potency and spectrum (MIC values of 0.

In Vitro and In Vivo Characterization of the Novel Oxabicyclooctane-Linked Bacterial Topoisomerase Inhibitor AM-8722, a Selective, Potent Inhibitor of Bacterial DNA Gyrase.

Oxabicyclooctane-linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) represent a new class of recently described antibacterial agents with broad-spectrum activity. NBTIs dually inhibit the clinically validated bacterial targets DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV and have been shown to bind distinctly from known classes of antibacterial agents directed against these targets. Herein we report the molecular, cellular, and in vivo characterization of AM-8722 as a representative N-alkylated-1,5-naphthyridone left-hand-side-substituted NBTI.

Structure activity relationship of C-2 ether substituted 1,5-naphthyridine analogs of oxabicyclooctane-linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents (Part-5).

Oxabicyclooctane linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) are new class of recently reported broad-spectrum antibacterial agents. They target bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV and bind to a site different than quinolones. They show no cross-resistance to known antibiotics and provide opportunity to combat drug-resistant bacteria.

Structure activity relationship of pyridoxazinone substituted RHS analogs of oxabicyclooctane-linked 1,5-naphthyridinyl novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents (Part-6).

Oxabicyclooctane linked 1,5-naphthyridinyl-pyridoxazinones are novel broad-spectrum bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) targeting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV at a site different than quinolones. Due to lack of cross-resistance to known antibiotics they present excellent opportunity to combat drug-resistant bacteria. A structure activity relationship of the pyridoxazinone moiety is described in this Letter.

Novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) are a new class of broad-spectrum antibacterial agents targeting bacterial Gyrase A and ParC and have potential utility in combating antibiotic resistance. (R)-Hydroxy-1,5-naphthyridinone left-hand side (LHS) oxabicyclooctane linked pyridoxazinone right-hand side (RHS) containing NBTIs showed a potent Gram-positive antibacterial profile. SAR around the RHS moiety, including substitutions around pyridooxazinone, pyridodioxane, and phenyl propenoids has been described.

Structure activity relationship of substituted 1,5-naphthyridine analogs of oxabicyclooctane-linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents (Part-4).

Bacterial resistance is rapidly growing, necessitating the need to discover new agents. Novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) are new class of broad-spectrum antibacterial agents targeting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. This class of inhibitors binds to an alternative binding site relative to fluoroquinolones and shows no cross-resistance to quinolones.

Tricyclic 1,5-naphthyridinone oxabicyclooctane-linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents-SAR of left-hand-side moiety (Part-2).

Novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors (NBTIs) represent a new class of broad-spectrum antibacterial agents targeting bacterial Gyrase A and ParC and have potential utility in combating antibiotic resistance. A series of novel oxabicyclooctane-linked NBTIs with new tricyclic-1,5-naphthyridinone left hand side moieties have been described. Compounds with a (R)-hydroxy-1,5-naphthyridinone moiety (7) showed potent antibacterial activity (e.

Kibdelomycin is a bactericidal broad-spectrum aerobic antibacterial agent.

Bacterial resistance to antibiotics continues to grow and pose serious challenges, while the discovery rate for new antibiotics declines. Kibdelomycin is a recently discovered natural-product antibiotic that inhibits bacterial growth by inhibiting the bacterial DNA replication enzymes DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. It was reported to be a broad-spectrum aerobic Gram-positive agent with selective inhibition of the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium difficile.

Stereoselective synthesis of cis-2-fluorocyclopropanecarboxylic acid.

A rhodium-catalyzed cyclopropanation of 1-fluoro-1-(phenylsulfonyl)ethylene and diazo esters is described as an effective method for the stereoselective synthesis of cis-2-fluorocyclopropanecarboxylic acid. This process provides an example of the cyclopropanation of electron-deficient olefin and diazoacetates.

Structures of kibdelomycin bound to Staphylococcus aureus GyrB and ParE showed a novel U-shaped binding mode.

Bacterial resistance to antibiotics continues to pose serious challenges as the discovery rate for new antibiotics fades. Kibdelomycin is one of the rare, novel, natural product antibiotics discovered recently that inhibits the bacterial DNA synthesis enzymes gyrase and topoisomerase IV. It is a broad-spectrum, Gram-positive antibiotic without cross-resistance to known gyrase inhibitors, including clinically effective quinolones.

Oxabicyclooctane-linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors as broad spectrum antibacterial agents.

Bacterial resistance is eroding the clinical utility of existing antibiotics necessitating the discovery of new agents. Bacterial type II topoisomerase is a clinically validated, highly effective, and proven drug target. This target is amenable to inhibition by diverse classes of inhibitors with alternative and distinct binding sites to quinolone antibiotics, thus enabling the development of agents that lack cross-resistance to quinolones.

Synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies of highly potent novel oxazolidinone antibacterials.

Novel antibacterial biaryl oxazolidinones bearing an aza-, an oxa-, or a thiabicyclo[3.1.0]hex-6-yl ring system were synthesized, and their in vitro antibacterial activity and structure-activity relationships (SAR) were evaluated.

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of novel pyrido[1,2,3-de][1,4]benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid derivatives carrying the 3-cyclopropylaminomethyl-4-substituted-1-pyrrolidinyl group as a C-10 substituent.

Novel pyrido[1,2,3- de][1,4]benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid derivatives 5- 9 carrying a 3-cyclopropylaminomethyl-4-substituted-1-pyrrolidinyl moiety at the C-10 position were synthesized and their in vitro antibacterial activity, intravenous single-dose toxicity, convulsion inductive ability, and phototoxicity were evaluated. It appeared evident that compounds 5a, 6a, 8a, and 9a, which have a cis-oriented 4-methyl or 4-fluoro-3-cyclopropylaminomethyl-1-pyrrolidinyl moiety at the C-10 position, exhibited 2- to 16-fold more potent in vitro antibacterial activity than clinafloxacin against quinolone-resistant Gram-positive clinical isolates. Furthermore, it was obvious that introduction of a fluorine atom to the C-4 position of the 3-cyclopropylaminomethyl-1-pyrrolidinyl moiety reduced intraveneous single-dose acute toxicity and the convulsion inductive ability, and introduction of a fluorine atom to the C-3 methyl group of the pyridobenzoxazine nucleus eliminated the phototoxicity.
