Easy access to Evans' oxazolidinones. Stereoselective synthesis and antibacterial activity of a new 2-oxazolidinone derivative.

ABSTRACT: An interesting new approach was developed for the synthesis of Evans' chiral auxiliaries with excellent yields. In turn, another new stereoselective and efficient strategy has also allowed for the preparation of a 2-oxazolidinone derivative in 34% overall yield from the Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct. The antibacterial activity of this oxazolidinone was tested against Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from animals with mastitis infections.

Synthesis, Antibacterial Activities, Mode of Action and Acute Toxicity Studies of New Oxazolidinone-Fluoroquinolone Hybrids.

Project description:To combat bacterial resistance, a series of new oxazolidinone-fluoroquinolone hybrids have been synthesized and characterized. All synthetic hybrids were preliminarily evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activities against 6 standard strains and 3 clinical isolates. The majority of hybrids displayed excellent activities against Gram-positive bacteria, but limited activities against Gram-negative bacteria. Hybrids OBP-4 and OBP-5 were found to be the most promising compounds. Further, in vitro antibacterial activities, mode of action and acute toxicity in mice of hybrids OBP-4 and OBP-5 were investigated. Hybrids OBP-4 and OBP-5 exhibited potent activities against Gram-positive bacteria, including drug-resistant strains. Correspondingly, studies on the mode of action of hybrids OBP-4 and OBP-5 indicated a strong inhibitory activity on protein synthesis by binding the active site of 50S subunit, but a weak inhibitory action on DNA synthesis. In addition, LD50 values of hybrids OBP-4 and OBP-5 in the acute oral toxicity were larger than 2000 mg/kg, suggesting a good safety profile.

Evans Enolates: Solution Structures of Lithiated Oxazolidinone-Derived Enolates.

Project description:The results of a combination of (6)Li and (13)C NMR spectroscopic and computational studies of oxazolidinone-based lithium enolates-Evans enolates-in tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution revealed a mixture of dimers, tetramers, and oligomers (possibly ladders). The distribution depended on the structure of the oxazolidinone auxiliary, substituent on the enolate, and THF concentration (in THF/toluene mixtures). The unsolvated tetrameric form contained a D(2d)-symmetric core structure, whereas the dimers were determined experimentally and computationally to be trisolvates with several isomeric forms.

Easy-To-Access Quinolone Derivatives Exhibiting Antibacterial and Anti-Parasitic Activities.

Project description:The cell wall of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has a unique structural organisation, comprising a high lipid content mixed with polysaccharides. This makes cell wall a formidable barrier impermeable to hydrophilic agents. In addition, during host infection, Mtb resides in macrophages within avascular necrotic granulomas and cavities, which shield the bacterium from the action of most antibiotics. To overcome these protective barriers, a new class of anti-TB agents exhibiting lipophilic character have been recommended by various reports in literature. Herein, a series of lipophilic heterocyclic quinolone compounds was synthesised and evaluated in vitro against pMSp12::GFP strain of Mtb, two protozoan parasites (Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma brucei brucei) and against ESKAPE pathogens. The resultant compounds exhibited varied anti-Mtb activity with MIC90 values in the range of 0.24-31 µM. Cross-screening against P. falciparum and T.b. brucei, identified several compounds with antiprotozoal activities in the range of 0.4-20 µM. Compounds were generally inactive against ESKAPE pathogens, with only compounds 8c, 8g and 13 exhibiting moderate to poor activity against S. aureus and A. baumannii.

Optically Pure Calixarenyl Phosphine via Stereospecific Alkylation on Evans' Oxazolidinone Moiety.

Project description:A convenient protocol for the synthesis of 25,26,27-tribenzoyl-28-[((S)-1-diphenylphos- phanyl-propan-2-yl)oxy]-calix[4]arene via stereospecific methylation on Evans' oxazolidinone moiety was reported. According to the 13C NMR analysis of this phosphine, the calix[4]arene skeleton adopted a 1,3-alternate conformation. The latter conformation of the macrocycle and the (S)-chirality of the carbon atom bearing the methyl substituent were confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. After coordination of the phosphinated ligand to the dimeric [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 organometallic precursor, the resulting arene-ruthenium complex was tested in the asymmetric reduction of acetophenone and alcohol was obtained with modest enantiomeric excess.

Design, Synthesis, and Antibacterial Evaluation of Oxazolidinones with Fused Heterocyclic C-Ring Substructure.

Project description:A series of novel oxazolidinone antibacterials with diverse fused heteroaryl C-rings bearing hydrogen bond donor and hydrogen bond acceptor functionalities were designed and synthesized. The compound with benzoxazinone C-ring substructure (8c) exhibited superior activity compared to linezolid against a panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Structural modifications at C5-side chain of 8c resulted in identification of several potent compounds (12a, 12b, 12g, and 12h). Selected compounds 8c and 12a showed very good microsomal stability and no CYP450 liability, thus clearing preliminary safety hurdles. A docking model of 12a binding to 23S rRNA suggested that the increased potency of 12a is due to additional ligand-receptor interaction.

Syntheses and antibacterial activity studies of new oxazolidinones from nitroso Diels-Alder chemistry.

Project description:A series of novel oxazolidinone antibiotics having [2.2.1] and [2.2.2] bicyclic oxazine moieties at the C-5 side chain of the A-ring was synthesized by nitroso Diels-Alder reactions, from three linezolid analogs containing morpholine, piperazine and thiomorpholine, respectively, as the C-ring components. Subsequent N-O bond cleavage generated oxazolidinones with 4-amino cyclo-2-en-1-ol substituents. The in vitro antibacterial activities of these oxazolidinone analogs were evaluated.

The oxazolidinone derivative locostatin induces cytokine appeasement.

Project description:Damaging inflammation arising from autoimmune pathology and septic responses results in severe cases of disease. In both instances, anti-inflammatory compounds are used to limit the excessive or deregulated cytokine responses. We used a model of robust T cell stimulation to identify new proteins involved in triggering a cytokine storm. A comparative proteomic mining approach revealed the differential mapping of Raf kinase inhibitory protein after T cell recall in vivo. Treatment with locostatin, an Raf kinase inhibitory protein inhibitor, induced T cell anergy by blocking cytokine production after Ag recall. This was associated with a reduction in Erk phosphorylation. Importantly, in vivo treatment with locostatin profoundly inhibited TNF-alpha production upon triggering the Ag-specific T cells. This effect was not limited to a murine model because locostatin efficiently inhibited cytokine secretion by human lymphocytes. Therefore, locostatin should be a useful therapeutic to control inflammation, sepsis, and autoimmune diseases.

LpxC Inhibitors: Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Oxazolidinones as Gram-negative Antibacterial Agents.

Project description:Herein we report a scaffold-hopping approach to identify a new scaffold with a zinc binding headgroup. Structural information was used to give novel oxazolidinone-based LpxC inhibitors. In particular, the most potent compound, 23j, showed a low efflux ratio, nanomolar potencies against E. coli LpxC enzyme, and excellent antibacterial activity against E. coli and K. pneumoniae. Computational docking was used to predict the interaction between 23j and E. coli LpxC, suggesting that the interactions with C207 and C63 contribute to the strong activity. These results provide new insights into the design of next-generation LpxC inhibitors.
