Synthesis, biological evaluation, and molecular docking studies of aldotetronic acid-based LpxC inhibitors
2022
: In order to develop novel inhibitors of the bacterial deacetylase LpxC bearing a substituent to target the UDP binding site of the enzyme, a series of aldotetronic acid-based hydroxamic acids was accessed in chiral pool syntheses starting from 4,6-O-benzylidene-d-glucose and l-arabinitol. The synthesized hydroxamic acids were tested for LpxC inhibitory activity in vitro, revealing benzyl ether 17a ((2S,3S)-4-(benzyloxy)-N,3-dihydroxy-2-[(4-{[4-(morpholinomethyl)phenyl]ethynyl}benzyl)oxy]butanamide) as the most potent LpxC inhibitor. This compound was additionally tested for antibacterial activity against a panel of clinically relevant Gram-negative bacteria, bacterial uptake, and suscepti…

The title compound, ircinianin, C25H32O4, belongs to the sesterterpene tetronic acid compound family and was isolated from the marine sponge Ircinia wistarii. These chemical scaffolds are pharmacologically relevant, since they represent a new class of glycine receptor modulators. The furan ring makes a dihedral angle of 35.14 (12)° to the 4-hydroxy-3-methylfuran-2(5H)-one ring. The crystal packing is characterized by intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds, which generate [010] chains.
