ABSTRACT
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. NBTIs consist of three structural motifs. A structure activity relationship of the left hand motif 1,5-naphthyridine of oxabicyclooctane-linked NBTIs is described. Fifty five compounds were evaluated against a panel of key Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains of bacteria, as well as for hERG activity and five compounds were tested for in vivo efficacy in murine model of Staphylococcus aureus infection. These studies suggest that only a narrow range (activating and deactivating) of substitutions at C-2 and C-7 are tolerated for optimal antibacterial activity and spectrum. An alkoxy (methoxy) and CN at C-2, and a halogen and hydroxyl at C-7, appeared to be preferred in this series. Substitutions on the other three carbons generally have detrimental effect on the activity. No clear hERG activity SAR emerged from these substitutions.
