7-Alkyl-N2-substituted-3-deazaguanines. Synthesis, DNA polymerase III inhibition and antibacterial activity
2011
Abstract Several 2-anilino- and 2-benzylamino-3-deaza-6-oxopurines [3-deazaguanines] and selected 8-methyl and 8-aza analogs have been synthesized. 7-Substituted N 2 -(3-ethyl-4-methylphenyl)-3-deazaguanines were potent and selective inhibitors of Gram+ bacterial DNA polymerase (pol) IIIC, and 7-substituted N 2 -(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-3-deazaguanines were potent inhibitors of both pol IIIC and pol IIIE from Gram+ bacteria, but weakly inhibited pol IIIE from Gram− bacteria. Potent enzyme inhibitors in both classes inhibited the growth of Gram+ bacteria (MICs 2.5–10 μg/ml), and were inactive against the Gram− organism Escherichia coli . Several derivatives had moderate protective activity in Staphylococcus aureus -infected mice.
