Two enantiomerically pure B-ring modified analogues of (-)-epicatechin gallate were synthesised and their modulation of β-lactam resistance using three strains of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (BB 568, EMRSA-15 and EMRSA-16) evaluated. Sub-i

The structure-activity relationship of a number of synthetic green tea polyphenol analogs involving modifications of A ring and B ring of epi-gallocatechin gallate (EGCG) as proteasome inhibitors has been examined. It was found that in B ring, a decrease in the number of OH groups led to decreased potency. Introduction of a hydrophobic benzyl group into the 8 position of A ring did not significantly affect the proteasome-inhibitory potency.
