[EN] ANTIMICROBIAL COMPOSITIONS AND USES FOR TREATMENT OF CLOSTRIDIOIDES DIFFICILE, MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS, AND ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS INFECTION [FR] COMPOSITIONS ANTIMICROBIENNES ET UTILISATIONS POUR LE TRAITEMENT D'INFECTIONS PAR CLOSTRIDIUM DIFFICILE, MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS ET ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS
摘要:
Provided herein are compositions to treat Clostridioid.es difficile (C. difficile), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) and Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis). These compositions are related to the known compounds (+)-Puupehenone and (+)-ent-Chromazonarol, which are both naturally occurring products. The new compositions were shown to potently inhibit both growth and toxin production of C. difficile as well as inhibit the growth and survival of both replicating and dormant M. tuberculosis. In the United States the C. difficile burden is approximately 453,000 hospital cases and 29,000 deaths annually. Globally, about 10 million people fall ill from tuberculosis and 1.4 million died from the disease. In addition, the known compound (+)-ent-Chromazonarol (10) was found for the first time to strongly inhibit the growth of E. faecalis. E. faecalis has grown drug resistant to vancomycin. In 2017, Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE) caused an estimated 54,500 infections among hospitalized patients and 5,400 estimated deaths in the United States.

A scalable, divergent synthesis of bioactive meroterpenoids has been developed. A key component of this work is the invention of "borono-sclareolide", a terpenyl radical precursor that enables gram-scale preparation of (+)-chromazonarol. Subsequent synthetic operations on this key intermediate permit rapid access to a variety of related meroterpenoids, many of which possess important biological activity.
