Abstract
The discovery of new small molecule-based inhibitors is an attractive field in medicinal chemistry. Structurally diversified heterocyclic derivatives have been investigated to combat multi-drug resistant bacterial infections and they offers several mechanism of action. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is becoming more and more deadly to humans because of its simple method of transmission, quick development of antibiotic resistance, and ability to cause hard-to-treat skin and filmy diseases. The sulfur (SVI) particularly sulfonyl and sulfonamide based heterocyclic moieties, have found to be good anti-MRSA agents. The development of new nontoxic, economical and highly active sulfur (SVI) containing derivatives has become hot research topics in drug discovery research. Presently, more than 150 FDA approved Sulfur (SVI)-based drugs are available in the market, and they are widely used to treat various types of diseases with different therapeutic potential. The present collective data provides the latest advancements in Sulfur (SVI)-hybrid compounds as antibacterial agents against MRSA. It also examines the outcomes of in-vitro and in-vivo investigations, exploring potential mechanisms of action and offering alternative perspectives on the structure-activity relationship (SAR). Sulfur (SVI)-hybrids exhibits synergistic effects with existing drugs to provide antibacterial action against MRSA.

Abstract
In recent years, the overuse of antibiotics has resulted in the emergence of antibiotic resistance, which is a serious global health problem. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a common and virulent bacterium in clinical practice. Numerous researchers have focused on developing new candidate drugs that are effective, less toxic, and can overcome MRSA resistance. Thiazole derivatives have been found to exhibit antibacterial activity against drug-sensitive and drug-resistant pathogens. By hybridizing thiazole with other antibacterial pharmacophores, it is possible to obtain more effective antibacterial candidate drugs. Thiazole derivatives have shown potential in developing new drugs that can overcome drug resistance, reduce toxicity, and improve pharmacokinetic characteristics. This article reviews the recent progress of thiazole compounds as potential antibacterial compounds and examines the structure-activity relationship (SAR) in various directions. It covers articles published from 2018 to 2023, providing a comprehensive platform to plan and develop new thiazole-based small MRSA growth inhibitors with minimal side effects.

Abstract
Synthesis of imidazole[2,1-b]benzothiazoles often suffers from the use of pre-functionalized substrates and/or homogeneous, non-recyclable catalytic systems. Herein we report a method for direct coupling of acetophenones and 2-aminobenzothiazoles in the presence of reusable perovskites, namely LaMn0.95Ni0.05O3. Imidazole[2,1-b]benzothiazoles were obtained in moderate to good yields and contained an array of useful functionalities. Control experiments indicated that the perovskites played pivotal roles in halogenation and condensation steps.

Abstract
The infectious diseases caused by bacterial resistance to antibiotics constitute an increasing threat to human health on a global scale. An increasing number of infections, including tuberculosis, pneumonia, salmonellosis and gonorrhea, are becoming progressively challenging to cure owing to the ineffectiveness of current clinically used antibiotics and presents a serious health threat worldwide in medical community. The major concern of this global health threat is the ability of microorganisms to develop one or several mechanisms of resistance to antibiotics, making them inefficient to therapeutic treatment. The quest for discovering novel scaffold with antimicrobial property is particularly in great need to face future challenges in hospital and healthcare settings. Hence, the development of benzothiazoles is of considerable interest to medicinal chemists. Benzothiazole, being part of an important class of heterocyclic scaffold retains a wide spectrum of various attractive pharmacological activities. Antibiotic resistance represents an increasing burden comprising medical cost, hospital stay and mortality. Several derivatives containing a benzothiazole scaffold, reported in the literature, were found to display remarkable potencies towards diverse Grampositive and Gram-negative bacterial pathogens. The principal focus concerns the antibacterial potential of benzothiazole-based derivatives as antimicrobial agents interacting with targets in bacterial pathogens. In this review, we also disclose the significance of the benzothiazole moiety in the discovery of new antibacterial compounds, the potential of benzothiazole-based derivatives in the case of resistant bacterial strains, optimization of their antibacterial activity, and their future perspectives. The structure-activity relationship study and the mode of action of the title derivatives are highlighted too.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus resistance poses nonnegligible threats to the livestock industry. In light of this, carbazole-oxadiazoles were designed and synthesized for treating S. aureus infection. Bioassay discovered that 3,6-dibromocarbazole derivative 13a had effective inhibitory activities to several Gram-positive bacteria, in particular to S. aureus, S. aureus ATCC 29213, MRSA and S. aureus ATCC 25923 (MICs = 0.6-4.6 nmol/mL), which was more active than norfloxacin (MICs = 6-40 nmol/mL). Subsequent studies showed that 3,6-dibromocarbazole derivative 13a acted rapidly on S. aureus ATCC 29213 and possessed no obvious tendency to induce bacterial resistance. Further evaluations indicated that 3,6-dibromocarbazole derivative 13a showed strong abilities to disrupt bacterial biofilm and interfere with DNA, which might be the power sources of antibacterial performances. Moreover, 3,6-dibromocarbazole derivative 13a also exhibited slight cell lethality toward Hek 293 T and LO2 cells and low hemolytic toxicity to red blood cells. The above results implied that the active molecule 13a could be studied in the future development of agricultural available antibiotics.

Abstract
As serious global drug resistance motivated the exploration of new structural drugs, we developed a type of novel structural aloe-emodin azoles as potential antibacterial agents in this work. Some target aloe-emodin azoles displayed effective activity against the tested strains, especially tetrazolyl aloe-emodin 4b showed a low MIC value of 2 μg mL-1 towards MRSA, being more efficient than the reference drug norfloxacin (MIC = 8 μg mL-1). Also, the active molecule 4b exhibited low cytotoxicity against LO2 cells with no distinct tendency to induce the concerned resistance towards MRSA. The tetrazolyl derivative 4b was preliminarily investigated for the possible mechanism; it was revealed that tetrazolyl derivative 4b could both disrupt the integrity of MRSA membrane and form 4b-DNA supramolecular complex by intercalating into DNA. Moreover, tetrazolyl aloe-emodin 4b could bind with MRSA DNA isomerase at multiple sites through hydrogen bonds in molecular simulation.

Abstract
Three series of new imidazole-fused imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole analogues (compounds 20 a-g, 21 a-g, and 22 a-g) have been synthesized, and their antibacterial and antifungal activities have been evaluated. All the target compounds showed strong antifungal activity and high selectivity for the test fungus Candida albicans over Gram-positive and -negative bacteria. N-((4-(2-Cyclopropyl-6-(4-fluorophenyl)imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-5-yl)-5-(6-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl)methyl)aniline (21 a) showed the highest activity against C. albicans (MIC50 =0.16 μg/mL), 13 and three times that of the positive control compounds gatifloxacin and fluconazole, respectively. Compounds 21 a and 20 e did not show cytotoxicity against human foreskin fibroblast-1 cells, and compound 21 a was as safe as the positive control compounds in hemolysis tests. These results strongly suggest that some of the compounds produced in this work have value for development as antifungal agents.

Abstract
A novel class of 7-thiazoxime quinolones was developed as potential antimicrobial agents for the sake of bypassing resistance of quinolones. Biological assays revealed that some constructed 7-thiazoxime quinolones possessed effective antibacterial efficiency. Methyl acetate oxime derivative 6l exhibited 32-fold more active than ciprofloxacin against MRSA, which also possessed rapidly bactericidal ability and low toxicity towards mammalian cells. The combination use of 7-thiazoxime quinolone 6l and ciprofloxacin was able to improve antibacterial potency and effectively alleviate bacterial resistance. The preliminarily mechanism exploration revealed that compound 6l could destroy the cell membrane and insert into MRSA DNA to bind with DNA gyrase, then decrease the expression of gyrB and femB genes. The above results strongly suggested that methyl acetate oxime derivative 6l held a promise for combating MRSA infection.

Abstract
A new type of Schiff base-bridged multi-component sulfonamide imidazole hybrids with antimicrobial potential was developed. Some target compounds showed significant antibacterial potency. Observably, butylene hybrids 4h exhibited remarkable inhibitory efficacy against clinical MRSA (MIC = 1 µg/mL), but had no significant toxic effect on normal mammalian cells (RAW 264.7). The highly active molecule 4h was revealed by molecular modeling study that it could insert into the base-pairs of DNA hexamer duplex and bind with the ASN-62 residue of human carbonic anhydrase isozyme II through hydrogen bonding. Furthermore, further preliminary antibacterial mechanism experiments confirmed that compound 4h could effectively interfere with MRSA membrane and insert into bacterial DNA isolated from clinical MRSA strains through non-covalent bonding to produce a supramolecular complex, thus exerting its strong antibacterial efficacy by impeding DNA replication. These findings strongly implied that the highly active hybrid 4h could be used as a potential DNA-targeting template for the development of valuable antimicrobial agent.

Abstract
Nitroimidazoles based compounds remain a hot topic of research in medicinal chemistry due to their numerous biological activities. Moreover, many clinical candidates based on this chemical core have been reported to be valuable in the treatment of human diseases. Metronidazole (MTZ) derived conjugates demonstrated a potential application in medicinal chemistry research over the last decade. In this review, we summarize the synthesis, key structure-activity-relationship (SAR) and associated biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV and anti-parasitic (Anti-trichomonas, antileishmanial, antiamoebic and anti-giardial) of explored MTZ-conjugates. The molecular docking analysis is also presented simultaneously, which will assist in developing an understanding towards designing of new MTZ-conjugates for target-based drug discovery against multiple disease areas.

Abstract
Aim: With the increasing emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, the need for new antimicrobial agents has become extremely urgent. This work was to develop sulfonyl thiazoles as potential antibacterial agents. Results & methodology: Novel hybrids of sulfonyl thiazoles were developed from commercial acetanilide and acetylthiazole. Hybrids 6e and 6f displayed excellent inhibitory efficacy against clinical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (minimum inhibitory concentration = 1 μg/ml) without obvious toxicity toward normal mammalian cells (RAW 264.7). The combination uses were found to improve the antimicrobial ability. Further preliminary antibacterial mechanism experiments showed that the active molecule 6f could effectively interfere with MRSA membrane and insert into MRSA DNA. Conclusion: Compounds 6e and 6f could serve as potential DNA-targeting templates toward the development of promising antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has developed numerous mechanisms of virulence and strategies to evade the human immune system, and it can be transmitted between humans, animals, and the environment. Thus, MRSA is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in both hospitals and in the community, creating an urgent demand for the development of novel anti-MRSA candidates. The 1,2,4-triazole nucleus is a bioisostere of amide, ester, and carboxylic acid, and the 1,2,4-triazole ring is found in many compounds with diverse biological effects. 1,2,4-Triazole derivatives could exert their antibacterial activity through inhibition of efflux pumps, filamentous temperature-sensitive protein Z, penicillin-binding protein, DNA gyrase, and topoisomerase IV, and they play an important role in the discovery of novel antibacterial agents. Among them, 1,2,4-triazole hybrids, which have the potential to exert dual/multiple mechanisms of action, possess a promising broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against a panel of clinically important drug-resistant pathogens including MRSA. This review outlines the recent developments of 1,2,4-triazole hybrids with a potential anti-MRSA activity, covering articles published between 2010 and 2020. The mechanisms of action, critical aspects of their design, and structure-activity relationships are also discussed.

Screening and Molecular Docking of Novel Benzothiazole Derivatives as Potential Antimicrobial Agents. Antibiotics (Basel) 2020; 9:antibiotics9050221.

Abstract
The burden of antibiotic resistance necessitates a continued search for new antimicrobials. We evaluated the antimicrobial activities of novel benzothiazoles synthesized by our group. Antibacterial activity was evaluated in vitro in Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and Escherichia coli, while the antifungal activity was tested in Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger, and expressed as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC; µg/mL). MIC values of benzothiazole compounds ranged from 25 to 200 µg/mL. Compounds 3 and 4 gave high antibacterial and moderate antifungal activities, while 10 and 12 showed moderate activity against all tested organisms. In addition, some benzothiazole compounds significantly suppressed the activity of Escherichia coli dihydroorotase and inhibited the dimorphic transition of Candida albicans. Moreover, the active benzothiazole compounds induced DNA and protein leakage in Aspergillus niger spores. Molecular interactions of benzothiazole derivatives with dihydroorotase revealed the formation of hydrogen bonds with the active site residues LEU222 or ASN44. Strong hydrophobic interactions of the bulky thiazole and naphthalene rings at the entrance to the active site might interfere with the access of substrates to their binding sites, which results in dihydroorotase inhibition. Thus, inhibition of dihydroorotase might contribute to the observed antimicrobial actions of these compounds.

Abstract
![]()
Thiazoles,
their benzofused systems, and thiazolidinone derivatives
are widely recognized as nuclei of great value for obtaining molecules
with various biological activities, including analgesic, anti-inflammatory,
anti-HIV, antidiabetic, antitumor, and antimicrobial. In particular,
in the past decade, many compounds bearing these heterocycles have
been studied for their promising antibacterial properties due to their
action on different microbial targets. Here we assess the recent development
of this class of compounds to address mechanisms underlying antibiotic
resistance at both bacterial-cell and community levels (biofilms).
We also explore the SAR and the prospective clinical application of
thiazole and its benzofused derivatives, which act as inhibitors of
mechanisms underlying antibiotic resistance in the treatment of severe
drug-resistant infections. In addition, we examined all bacterial
targets involved in their antimicrobial activity reporting, when described,
their spontaneous frequencies of resistance.

Abstract
:
Due to their versatile biological activity, Azoles are widely studied in pharmacochemistry. It is possible
to use them in many applications and in studies aimed at discovering antiparasitic, antineoplastic, antiviral,
antimicrobial compounds; and in the production of materials for treatment of varied pathologies. Based on their
biological activity, our review presents several studies that involve this class of organic compounds. A bibliographic
survey of this type can effectively contribute to pharmaceutical sciences, stimulating the discovery of new
compounds, and structural improvements to biological profiles of interest. In this review, articles are discussed
involving the synthesis of new compounds and chemoinformatic contributions. Current applications of azoles in
both the pharmaceutical and agri-business sectors are well known, yet as this research highlights, azole compounds
can also bring important contributions to the fight against many diseases. Among the heterocyclics, azoles
are increasingly studied by research groups around the world for application against tuberculosis, HIV, fungal and
bacterial infections; and against parasites such as leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis. Our hope is that this work
will help arouse the interest of research groups planning to develop new bioactives to fight against these and
other diseases.

Abstract
Infections especially tuberculosis caused by various bacteria including mycobacteria result in millions of lives every year, but the control of bacterial infections is challenged by the limitation of effective pharmaceuticals against drug-resistant pathogens. Nitroimidazoles belong to a group of nitroheterocyclic compounds that have broad-spectrum activity against a series of organisms such as mycobacteria, anaerobic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and some of them have already been used in clinics or under clinical trials for the treatment of infectious diseases. In this review, we made an overview of the recent advances in nitroimidazole-containing compounds with antibacterial and antitubercular activity in the recent 20 years.

Abstract
This work did a new exploration towards aminothiazolquinolone oximes as potentially multi-targeting antimicrobial agents. A class of novel hybrids of quinolone, aminothiazole, piperazine and oxime fragments were designed for the first time, conveniently synthesized as well as characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS spectra. Biological activity showed that some of the synthesized compounds exhibited good antimicrobial activities in comparison with the reference drugs. Especially, O-methyl oxime derivative 10b displayed excellent inhibitory efficacy against MRSA and S. aureus 25923 with MIC values of 0.009 and 0.017 mM, respectively. Further studies indicated that the highly active compound 10b showed low toxicity toward BEAS-2B and A549 cell lines and no obvious propensity to trigger the development of bacterial resistance. Quantum chemical studies have also been conducted and rationally explained the structural features essential for activity. The preliminarily mechanism exploration revealed that compound 10b could not only exert efficient membrane permeability by interfering with the integrity of cells, bind with topoisomerase IV-DNA complex through hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking, but also form a steady biosupramolecular complex by intercalating into DNA to exert the efficient antibacterial activity. The supramolecular interaction between compound 10b and human serum albumin (HSA) was a static quenching, and the binding process was spontaneous, where hydrogen bonds and van der Waals force played vital roles in the supramolecular transportation of the active compound 10b by HSA.

Abstract
A series of aminothiazolyl norfloxacin analogues as a new type of potential antimicrobial agents were synthesized and screened for their antimicrobial activities. Most of the prepared compounds exhibited excellent inhibitory efficiencies. Especially, norfloxacin analogue II-c displayed superior antimicrobial activities against K. pneumoniae and C. albicans with MIC values of 0.005 and 0.010 mM to reference drugs, respectively. This compound not only showed broad antimicrobial spectrum, rapid bactericidal efficacy and strong enzymes inhibitory potency including DNA gyrase and chitin synthase (CHS), low toxicity against mammalian cells and no obvious propensity to trigger the development of bacterial resistance, but also exerted efficient membrane permeability, and could effectively intercalate into K. pneumoniae DNA to form a steady supramolecular complex, which might block DNA replication to exhibit their powerful antimicrobial activity. Quantum chemical studies were also performed to explain the high antimicrobial activities. Molecular docking showed that compound II-c could bind with gyrase-DNA and topoisomerase IV-DNA through hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking.

Novel organophosphorus aminopyrimidines as unique structural DNA-targeting membrane active inhibitors towards drug-resistant methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. MEDCHEMCOMM 2018; 9:1529-1537. [PMID: 30288226 DOI: 10.1039/c8md00301g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2018] [Accepted: 07/29/2018] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
A series of novel unique structural organophosphorus aminopyrimidines were developed as potential DNA-targeting membrane active inhibitors through an efficient one-pot procedure from aldehydes, phosphonate and aminopyrimidine. The biological assay revealed that some of the prepared compounds displayed antibacterial activities. In particular, imidazole derivative 2c exhibited more potent inhibitory activity against MRSA with an MIC value of 4 μg mL-1 in comparison with the clinical drugs chloromycin and norfloxacin. Experiments revealed that the active molecule 2c had the ability to rapidly kill the tested strains without obviously triggering the development of bacterial resistance, showed low toxicity to L929 cells and could disturb the cell membrane. The molecular docking study discovered that compound 2c could bind with DNA gyrase via hydrogen bonds and other weak interactions. Further exploration disclosed that the active molecule 2c could also effectively intercalate into MRSA DNA and form a steady 2c-DNA supramolecular complex, which might further block DNA replication to exert powerful antibacterial effects.
