Abstract:
To find antibacterial candidate compounds, eighteen novel sulfonamide derivatives containing a fused-ring were designed and synthesized on the basis of previous studies, with structures confirmed by
1H NMR,
13C NMR and MS. Antibacterial activities of the products were evaluated by the agar dilution method. The results show that these derivatives have different degrees of inhibitory activity on the tested bacteria, with the compounds
Ⅱi and
Ⅱr the most potent. The MIC of
Ⅱi for
S. aureus,
E. coli and MRSA was 8, 32 and 16 μg·mL
-1, respectively, and the MIC of the
Ⅱr was 8, 64 and 32 μg·mL
-1, respectively. The anti-MRSA activities of the two compounds is significant and is worthy of further structural optimization and study.
