A series of novel substituted 4-thiazolidione derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated in vitro for their antibacterial activities, in comparison with methicillin and ampicillin. Compounds (7d, 7h-k) exhibit good potency in inhibiting the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis (MIC: 1.57-3.13 mu M). Further antibacterial effects of compounds (7d, 7h-k) were investigated using clinical isolates (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), in comparison with methicillin and levofloxacin. Compound 7k showed the most potent antibacterial activities among the synthesized compounds.
