Novel C(3) propenylamide and propenylsulfonamide cephalosporins have been synthesized and tested for their ability to inhibit the penicillin-binding protein 2' (PBP2') from Staphylococcus epidermidis and the growth of a panel of clinically relevant bacterial species, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The most potent compounds inhibited the growth of MRSA strains with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) as low as 1 mu g/mL. The structure-activity relationship revealed the potential for further optimization of this new cephalosporin class. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
