摘要
Ring-fused 2-pyridones, termed pilicides, are small synthetic compounds that inhibit pilus assembly in uropathogenic Escherichia coli. Their biological activity is clearly dependent upon a carboxylic acid functionality. Here, we present the synthesis and biological evaluation of carboxylic acid isosteres, including, for example, tetrazoles, acyl sulfonamides, and hydroxamic acids of two lead 2-pyridones. Two independent biological evaluations show that acyl sulfonamides and tetrazoles significantly improve pilicide activity against uropathogenic E. coli. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
