Published: June 2004

A series of oxazolidinone antibacterial agents containing a 5-substituted isoxazol-3-yl moiety were synthesized via a nitrile oxide [3+2] dipolar cycloaddition reaction. These compounds were screened against a panel of susceptible and resistant Gram-positive organisms. Several analogs from this series were comparable to or more potent than linezolid in vitro.

The increasing antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, responsible for both community-acquired and hospital-acquired infections, is of global significance. The primary mechanisms contributing to resistance development in P.aeruginosa include the increased activity of efflux pumps, decreased permeability of outer membrane porins and the production of carbapenemases.

Improper use of antibiotics has led to the development of antimicrobial resistance, or "superbugs," outpacing the discovery of new antibiotics. The lack of rapid, high-throughput screening methods is a major bottleneck in discovery novel antibiotics. Traditional methods consume significant amounts of samples, making it challenging to discover new antibiotics from limited natural product extracts.
