Abstract

In the past few years, a significant effort has been devoted by Pharmacia toward the discovery of novel antibiotics. We have recently described the identification of an anthranilic acid lead 1 and the optimization resulting in the advanced lead 2. In this report, we describe the preparation of several selected amide bioisosteres connecting the A-and the B-rings. The E-alkene provided a rigid analog with equal potency to the corresponding amide. This ...
