title: Discovery of a novel benzyloxyisoquinoline derivative with potent anti-Helicobacter pylori activity.
abstract: The synthesis and in vitro optimization of the anti-Helicobacter pylori activity of a novel series of benzyloxyisoquinoline derivatives discovered by a random screening process, are described. FR180102 (7f), having a 3-acetamido-2,6-dichlorobenzyl moiety, was found to have extremely potent activity against H. pylori and no effect against a series of common Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
