By screening a library of metalloenzyme inhibitors, the N-formyl-hydroxylamine derivative BB-3497 was identified as a potent inhibitor of Escherichia coli peptide deformylase with antibacterial activity both in vitro and in vivo. The homochiral synthesis of BB-3497, involving a novel asymmetric Michael addition reaction is described.
通过筛选金属酶抑制剂文库,N-甲酰基羟胺衍生物BB-3497被鉴定为大肠杆菌肽脱甲酰基酶的有效抑制剂,在体外和体内均具有抗菌活性。本文描述了BB-3497的纯手性合成,其中涉及一种新型不对称迈克尔加成反应。
