Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of Novel Pleuromutilin Derivatives with Substituted Benzimidazole Moieties

A series of novel pleuromutilin derivatives with substituted benzimidazole moieties were designed and synthesized from pleuromutilin and 5-amino-2-mercaptobenzimidazole through sequential reactions. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, and HRMS. Each of the derivatives...

Description
Summary:A series of novel pleuromutilin derivatives with substituted benzimidazole moieties were designed and synthesized from pleuromutilin and 5-amino-2-mercaptobenzimidazole through sequential reactions. All the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, and HRMS. Each of the derivatives was evaluated in vitro for their antibacterial activity against ( ) and five Gram (+) inoculums. 14- -((5-amino-benzimidazole-2-yl) thioacetyl) mutilin ( ) was the most active compound and showed highest antibacterial activities. Furthermore, we evaluated the inhibition activities of compound on short-term and MRSA growth and cytochrome P450 (CYP). The bioassay results indicate that compound could be considered potential antibacterial agents but with intermediate inhibition of CYP3A4.
