Arbekacin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, is an important drug because it shows a potent efficacy against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. However, resistance to arbekacin, which is caused mainly by the bifunctional aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme, has been observed, becoming a serious problem in medical practice. To create new arbekacin derivatives active against resistant bacteria, we modified the C-4â³ and 6â³ positions of its 3-aminosugar portion. Regioselective amination of the 6â³-position gave 6â³-amino-6â³-deoxyarbekacin (1), and it was converted to a variety of 6â³-N-alkanoyl derivatives (6aâz). Furthermore, regioselective modifications of the 4â³-hydroxyl group were performed to give 4â³-deoxy-4â³-epiaminoarbekacin (2) and its 4â³-N-alkanoyl derivatives (12 and 13). Their antibacterial activity against S. aureus, including arbekacin-resistant bacteria, was evaluated. It was observed that 6â³-amino-6â³-N-[(S)-4-amino-2-hydroxybutyryl]-6â³-deoxyarbekacin (6o) showed excellent antibacterial activity, even better than arbekacin.
阿贝卡星是一种氨基糖苷类抗生素,因对耐甲氧西林的金黄色葡萄球菌显示出强效而成为重要药物。然而,由于双功能氨基糖苷修饰酶导致的耐药性已被观察到,成为医学实践中的一大难题。为了研制对耐药菌有活性新型阿贝卡星衍生物,我们对阿贝卡星的3-氨基糖部分的C-4''位点和6''位点进行了修饰。通过对6''-位置的立体选择性胺化,得到了6''-氨基-6''-脱氧阿贝卡星(1),并将其转化为各种6''-N-烷酰基衍生物(6a-z)。此外,对4''-羟基的区域选择性修饰得到了4''-脱氧-4''-表氨基阿贝卡星(2)及其4''-N-烷酰基衍生物(12和13)。评估了这些化合物对金黄色葡萄球菌(包括耐阿贝卡星的菌株)的抗菌活性。观察到6''-氨基-6''-N-[(S)-4-氨基-2-羟基丁酰基]-6''-脱氧阿贝卡星(6o)显示出优异的抗菌活性,甚至优于阿贝卡星。
