Discovery of a novel nitroimidazolyl–oxazolidinone hybrid with potent anti Gram-positive activity: Synthesis and antibacterial evaluation
摘要:
A number of linezolid analogues containing a nitroaryl-1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety, were prepared and evaluated as antibacterial agents against a panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Among synthesized compounds, nitrofuran analogue 1b exhibited more potent inhibitory activity, with respect to other synthesized compounds and reference drug linezolid. The target compounds were also assessed for their cytotoxic activity against normal mouse fibroblast (NIH/3T3) cells using MTT assay. The results indicated that compound 1c exhibit potent antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria at non-cytotoxic concentrations. (C) 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
