The compounds of the present invention are effective against a number of human or animal pathogens, clinical isolates, including Vancomycin resistant organisms, methicillin resistant organisms.
Background of Invention
The oxazolidinone class of compounds represents totally synthetic antibacterials endowed with a mechanism different from the mode of action of known antibacterial compounds. The oxazolidinone interact with 50S ribosomal subunit to form an initiation complex and thus prevent the bacterial translation necessary for the replication of the bacteria. These compounds had shown antibacterial activity against gram + ve organisms and a host of opportunistic pathogens such as methicillin resistant Staphlococcus aureus (MRSA), penicillin resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (PRSE), vancomycin resistant Enterococci (NRE). The best-represented compounds are linezolid and eperezolid, linezolid being approved by US FDA for treatment of several bacterial infections. Since then a lot of work had been done and there is still a need for research to extend the activity of oxazolidinones to act against gram negative pathogens. Some literature and patents are available where efforts have been made to modify the oxazolidinone moiety to impart the gram negative activity.
Several oxazolidinone derivatives have been reported in the literature some of which are given here: WO 99/37630 and 01/09107 discloses compound of formula (II)
