Abstract
The structural similarity between beta-lactam antibiotics, such as penicillin, and isoxazolidine-3,5-dicarboxylic acids led to the hypothesis that isoxazolidine-3,5-dicarboxylic acids could be effective analogs of beta-lactam antibiotics. The syntheses of relevant isoxazolidine-3,5-dicarboxylic acids from acylnitroso Diels-Alder adducts and subsequent biological testing have shown that these first examples are inhibitors of Escherichia coli X580.
