Abstract:
To explore new agents of quinolone derivatives with high antibacterial activity, 7-(4-alkoxyimino-3-methyl-3-methylaminopiperidin-1-yl)quinolones were designed and synthesized, and their activity against gram-positive and gram-negative strains was tested in vitro. Sixteen target compounds were obtained. Their structures were established by 1H NMR, HRMS and X-ray crystallographic analysis. Compounds 14k and 14m-14o show good antibacterial activity against the tested five gram-positive strains and five gram-negative strains (MIC: 0.25-16 micromg x mL(-1)), of which the most active compound 14o is 8-fold more potent than levofloxacin against S. pneumoniae (MIC: 4 microg x mL(-1)), and comparable to levofloxacin against S. aureus, S. epidermidis, E. faecalis and E. coli (MIC: 0.25-1 microg x mL(-1)), but generally less potent than gemifloxacin.
