C2 Arylated Benzo[b]thiophene Derivatives as Staphylococcus aureus NorA Efflux Pump Inhibitors

Abstract: An innovative and straightforward synthesis of second-generation 2-arylbenzo[b]thiophenes as structural analogues of INF55 and the first generation of our laboratory-made molecules was developed. The synthesis of C2-arylated benzo[b]thiophene derivatives was achieved through a method involving direct arylation, followed by simple structural modifications. Among the 34 compounds tested, two of them were potent NorA pump inhibitors, which led to a 16-fold decrease in the ciprofloxacin minimum inhibitory concentr… Show more

“…7 Additional studies have shown that uniquely substituted benzo[ b ] thiophenes may be useful in the treatment of Staphylococcus infections. 8 Organic materials containing the benzothiophene core structure are showcased in devices including novel phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes (PHOLED’s) made possible by the low-lying LUMO and high thermal stability associated with aromatic heterocycles 9 ; organic thin-film field effect transistors (OFET’s) dependent on the high photostability and ionization potential of core-structure organics 10 ; and dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC’s). 11…”

“…First, the effects of the compounds on the MICs of ciprofloxacin, an efflux substrate of the NorA systems, and erythromycin an efflux substrate of the MrsA systems, were measured against S. aureus SA-1 and S. aureus RN-4220 strains, respectively. The choice of the SA-1 strain instead of the SA-1199B strain (the most commonly used strain in NorA efflux pump inhibition assays [33][34][35] was because the former strain overexpresses the NorA efflux pump without having other mutations such as mutations in topoisomerase IV (A116E GrlA) previously reported in SA-1199B. [36] Then, compounds that resulted in the 4-fold decrease or more in the MIC of ciprofloxacin were assayed for their time-dose effects on the accumulation and on the efflux of ethidium bromide, a substrate of the NorA pump in the S. aureus SA-1 strain.…”
