Optimization and Antibacterial Evaluation of Novel 3-(5-Fluoropyridine-3-yl)-2-oxazolidinone Derivatives Containing a Pyrimidine Substituted Piperazine.

ABSTRACT: In this study, a series of novel 3-(5-fluoropyridine-3-yl)-2-oxazolidinone derivatives were designed and synthesized based on compounds previously reported, and their antibacterial activity was investigated. Then their antibacterial activity was investigated for the first time. Preliminary screening results showed that all these compounds exhibited antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria, including 7 drug-sensitive strains and 4 drug-resistant strains, among which compound 7j exhibited an 8-fold stronger inhibitory effect than linezolid, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 0.25 µg/mL. Further molecular docking studies predicted the possible binding mode between active compound 7j and the target. Interestingly, these compounds could not only ha
