A new series of amino acid derivatives of quinolines was synthesized through the hydrolysis of amino acid methyl esters of quinoline carboxamides with alkali hydroxide. The compounds were purified on silica gel by column chromatography and further characterized by TLC, NMR and ESI-TOF mass spectrometry. All compounds were screened for in vitro antimicrobial activity against different bacterial strains using the microdilution method. Most of the synthesized amino acid-quinolines show more potent or equipotent inhibitory action against the tested bacteria than their correspond esters. In addition, many of them exhibit fluorescent properties and could possibly be utilized as fluorophores. Molecular docking and simulation studies of the compounds at putative bacterial target enzymes suggest that the antimicrobial potency of these synthesized analogues could be due to enzyme inhibition via their favorable binding at the fluoroquinolone binding site at the GyrA subunit of DNA gyrase and/or the ParC subunit of topoisomerase-IV.

A new synthesis of the important amino acid 2-aminosuberic acid from aspartic acid is reported. The methodology involves the alternate preparation of (S)-2-aminohept-6-enoate ester as a building block and its diversification through a cross-metathesis reaction to prepare the title compounds. The utility of the protocol is demonstrated through the preparation of three suberic acid derivatives of relevance to the design and the synthesis of peptides of biological relevance.

  Objective: The increased microbial resistance against commercially available drugs initiated the development of novel and safe antimicrobial agents in last few decades. In this view, a series of amino acid/dipeptide derivatives of quinazolin-3(4H)-one was synthesized and was evaluated for their antimicrobial potential.Method: Synthesis of amino acid/peptide derivatives were carried out by coupling 5-(2-(2-chlorophenyl)-4-oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)-2-hydroxy benzoic acid with amino acid/dipeptide methyl esters in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and N-methylmorpholine. The chemical structures of synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy and were screened for antibacterial activity by disc diffusion method.Results: All the synthesized derivatives exhibited moderate to significant antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The potency of compound 5d was comparable to standard drug ciprofloxacin in all the strains of bacteria used. The compound 5a was found to be more active against Streptococcus pyogenes and Staphylococcus aureus while compound 5c against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Conclusion: Peptide derivatives of quinazolinone are promising antimicrobial agent and can be used for the synthesis of other novel compounds.

ABSTRACT Both linear and cyclic derivatives of the cyclic 12-amino-acid antimicrobial peptide bactenecin were designed based on optimization of amphipathicity and charge location. In general, increasing the number of positive charges at the N and C termini and adding an extra tryptophan residue in the loop not only increased the activities against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria but also broadened the antimicrobial spectrum.
