FK-228 is a potent histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor with tremendous therapeutic potential against a wide array of human cancers. We describe the development of analogs that share FK-228's novel mechanism of activation and HDAC inhibition.

The DNA gyrase inhibitor cyclothialidine was shown to be an interesting lead structure for the search of new antibacterials. During extensive work elucidating the structure-activity relations, it was demonstrated that variation of the lactone ring size of its bicyclic core was tolerated. Indeed, even 'seco' analogues exhibited DNA gyrase inhibitory activity. These derivatives were subsequently found to be conveniently accessible by a reductive thiolation approach. Application of this methodology to cyclic systems established an alternative, concise, and flexible synthetic access to congeners of cyclothialidine of varying ring size which so far had been prepared by Mitsunobu lactonization of the corresponding seco acids.
