The diazabicyclooctane (DBO) scaffold is the backbone of non-β-lactam-based second generation β-lactamase inhibitors. As part of our efforts, we have synthesized a series of DBO derivatives A1–23 containing amidine substituents at the C2 position of the bicyclic ring. These compounds, alone and in combination with meropenem, were tested against ten bacterial strains for their antibacterial activity in vitro. All compounds did not show antibacterial activity when tested alone (MIC >64 mg/L), however, they exhibited a moderate inhibition activity in the presence of meropenem by lowering its MIC values. The compound A12 proved most potent among the other counterparts against all bacterial species with MIC from <0.125 mg/L to 2 mg/L, and is comparable to avibactam against both E. coli strains with a MIC value of <0.125 mg/L.
重氮双环辛烷(DBO)支架是非β-内酰胺类第二代β-内酰胺酶抑制剂的骨架。作为研究工作的一部分,我们合成了一系列 DBO 衍生物 A1-23,这些衍生物在双环的 C2 位含有脒取代基。这些化合物单独或与美罗培南复配,针对十种细菌菌株进行了体外抗菌活性测试。所有化合物在单独测试时均未显示出抗菌活性(MIC 为 64 毫克/升),但在美罗培南存在的情况下,它们显示出适度的抑制活性,降低了美罗培南的 MIC 值。事实证明,化合物 A12 对所有细菌种类都具有最强的抗菌活性,其 MIC 值为 0.125 mg/L 至 2 mg/L,对两种大肠杆菌菌株的 MIC 值均为 0.125 mg/L,与阿维菌素相当。
