The naturally occurring phthalide-containing antibiotics spirolaxine methyl ether, CJ-12,954, CJ-13,013, CJ-13,015, CJ-13,102, CJ-13,103, CJ-13,104 and CJ-13,108, have been reported to exhibit anti-H. pylori activity. However, the exact stereochemistry of spirolaxine methyl ether, CJ-12,954 or CJ-13,013, contributing to this observed activity has not been confirmed. The anti-H. pylori activity of several analogues of spirolaxine methyl ether, CJ-12,954 and CJ-13,013 of defined stereochemistry together with the anti-H. pylori activity of several indole analogues of the simpler phthalide-containing antibiotics CJ-13,102, CJ-13,104, CJ-13,108 and CJ-13,015 is reported herein. A 1:1 mixture of spiroacetals 5b and 6b in which the phthalide substituent exhibited (3R)-stereochemistry was sixty times more active than the corresponding 1:1 mixture of spiroacetals with (3S)-stereochemistry. Notably, the unnatural (2 '' S)-diastereomer of spirolaxine methyl ether exhibited more potent anti-H. pylori activity than the natural product spirolaxine methyl ether. The 4,6-dimethoxyindoles 9, 10, 11 and 13 were all found to be less active than their parent compounds 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. Chain-shortened 4,6-dimethoxyindole analogue 12 of CJ-13,108 3 and 4,6-dimethoxyindole-spiroacetal 13 exhibited weak anti-H. pylori activity thus providing future opportunity for drug discovery programs.
