MexAB-OprM specific efflux pump inhibitors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Part 7: highly soluble and in vivo active quaternary ammonium analogue D13-9001, a potential preclinical candidate.
A series of 4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives, substituted at the 2-position with piperidines bearing quaternary ammonium salt side chains, were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to potentiate the activity of the fluoroquinolone levofloxacin (LVFX) and the beta-lactam aztreonam (AZT) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Attachment of the charged entity using an N-ethylcarbamoyloxy linker led to the discovery of the highly soluble compound 22 (D13-9001), which maintained good potency in vitro and displayed excellent activity in vivo in a rat pneumonia model of P. aeruginosa.
