Abstract: A series of novel N-4-piperazinylciprofloxacin-ester hybrids has been synthesized and the structures confirmed by1H and 13C NMR, FT-IRspectral data, and elemental analysis. The products have been tested in vitro for their antibacterial activity againstsix bacterial strains (MRSA, Staphylococcusepidermidis, Bacillussubtilis, Escherichia coli,Salmonella enterica, and Klebsiella pneumoniae) and have demonstrated goodantibacterial activity with MIC values range 6.25–200 μg/mL. Antifungal andcytotoxic activities of the products have been tested against Candida kefyr and human leukemia K562 cell line,respectively. All compounds inhibit growth of K562 cells more efficiently thanthe parent ciprofoxacin in a dose- and duration-dependent way. Molecular dockingstudies performed for the compound 3i indicatesthat similarly to ciprofloxacin it can act as an inhibitor of S. aureus DNA gyrase.
1,2,3-Triazole-based inhibitors of Porphyromonas gingivalis adherence to oral streptococci and biofilm formation

The development and use of small-molecule inhibitors of the adherence of Porphyromonas gingivalis to oral streptococci represents a potential therapy for the treatment of periodontal disease as these organisms work in tandem to colonize the oral cavity. Earlier work from these laboratories demonstrated that a small synthetic peptide was an effective inhibitor of the interaction between P. gingivalis and Streptococcus gordonii and that a small-molecule peptidomimetic would provide a more stable, less expensive and more effective inhibitor. An array of 2-(azidomethyl)- and 2-(azidophenyl)-4,5-diaryloxazoles having a full range of hydrophobic groups were prepared and reacted with substituted arylacetylenes to afford the corresponding ‘click’ products. The title compounds were evaluated for their ability to inhibit P. gingivalis’ adherence to oral streptococci and several were found to be inhibitory in the range of (IC50) 5.3–67?μM.

A series of azidoaryl- and azidoalkyl(diphenyl)oxazole scaffolds were warranted for biofilm inhibition studies. Cyclization of azidoaryl- or azidoalkyl esters of benzoin with ammonium acetate in acetic acid gives 2-azidoaryl- or 2-azidoalkyl-4,5-diphenyloxazoles. The azidoaryl esters are prepared from the corresponding azidocarboxylic acids/acid chlorides while the azidoalkyl esters are prepared from the corresponding haloalkyl esters.
