Standard antibiotic-based strategies for the treatment of Clostridium difficile infections disrupt indigenous microbiota and commonly fail to eradicate bacterial spores, two key factors that allow recurrence of infection. As an alternative approach to controlling C. difficile infection, a series of bile acid derivatives have been prepared that inhibit taurocholate-induced spore germination. These analogues have been evaluated in a highly virulent NAP1 strain using optical density and phase-contrast microscopy assays. Heterocycle substitutions at C24 were well-tolerated and several tetrazole-containing derivatives were highly potent inhibitors in both assays, with complete inhibition of spore germination observed at 10-25 μM. To limit intestinal absorption, C7-sulfated analogues designed to avoid active and passive transport pathways were prepared. One of these derivatives, compound 21b, was found to be a potent inhibitor of C. difficile spore germination and poorly permeable in a Caco-2 model of intestinal epithelial absorption, suggesting that it is likely to be gut-restricted.

Bile acid amides and oxazolines were synthesized by a sequence of steps involving the reaction of the free bile acid with formic acid to yield the formyloxy derivative, preparation of the formyloxy acid chloride, condensation of the acid chloride with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol to give the amide and, finally, cyclization of the amide with thionyl chloride to give the oxazoline. The oxazolines were characterized by physical constants, thin layer and gas-liquid chromatography and identified by elemental analysis and gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Some of the bile acid oxazoline derivatives alter the activity of bacterial 7-dehydroxylases in vitro, and inhibit the growth of certain anaerobic bacteria in pure culture.

Amides obtained by the condensation of some bile acid chlorides with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol on cyclization yield bile acid oxazolines.Physical properties of these bile acid derivatives are described.Some of the oxazolines are non-toxic and are inhibitors of 7-dehydroxylaseactivity in fecal anaerobic bacteria and purified enzymes from these bacteria.
