Synthesis, characterization, antibacterial, antifungal, and immunomodulating activities of gatifloxacin derivatives
摘要:
Gatifloxacin is a synthetic broad-spectrum fluorquinolone antibacterial agent with a 3-methylpiperazinyl-side chain at position 7 and a methoxy group at position 8 of the quinolone ring. In the present study different analogues of gatifloxacin were prepared; the piperazinyl ring was chosen as the center of reaction for synthesizing this series of derivatives. The structures of these derivatives were established using spectroscopic techniques such as IR, H-1 NMR, and EIMS. In vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities were evaluated by disc diffusion method and these derivatives were compared with in-use fluoroquinolones like gatifloxacin, sparfloxacin, and gemifloxacin. Derivative A proved very potent against Gram-negative organisms, especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Shigella flexeneri, and Klebseilla pneumoniae, and derivatives A-C exhibited good antifungal activity compared to in-use quinolones. In addition, gatifloxacin and derivatives were investigated for immunomodulating activities. Derivative B has good anti-inflammatory activity, with IC50 < 12.5 mu g/ml.
