New C25 carbamate rifamycin derivatives are resistant to inactivation by ADP-ribosyl transferases
摘要:
A novel series of 3-morpholino rifamycins in which the C25 acetate group was replaced by a carbamate group were prepared and found to exhibit-significantly improved antimicrobial activity than rifampin against Mycobacterium smegmatis. Further characterization of such compounds suggests that relatively large groups attached to the rifamycin core via a C25 carbarnate linkage prevent inactivation via ribosylation of the C23 alcohol as catalyzed by the endogenous rifampin ADP-ribosyl transferase of M. smegmatis. SAR studies of the C25 carbarnate rifamycin series against M. smegmatis and other bacteria are reported. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Compounds of the current invention relate to rifamycin derivatives having antimicrobial activities, including activities against drug-resistant microorganisms. More specifically, compounds of the current invention relate to C-25 carbamate derivatives of rifamycin having another functional group or pharmacophore covalently attached to this position through a carbamate linkage. The resulting compounds exert their antimicrobial activity through a dual-function mechanism and therefore exhibit reduced frequency of resistance.
