Synthesis, antimicrobial and molecular docking study of structural analogues of 3-((5-(dimethylcarbamoyl)pyrrolidin-3-yl)thio)-6-(1-hydroxyethyl)-4-methyl-7-oxo-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2-carboxylic acid.

Abstract

The goal of the current work was to create structural analogues of a beta lactam antibiotic that might be possibly effective against bacterial resistant strains. FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and CHNS analyses were used to perform the spectroscopic study on the compounds M1-8. The effects of the aforementioned substances on gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains were investigated. Most of the eight compounds had antibacterial activity that was lower than or equivalent to that of the original medication, but two molecules, M2 and M3, surprisingly, had stronger antibacterial activity. The findings of synthesized analogues against alpha-glucosidase and DPPH inhibition were found to be modest, whereas M2, M3, and M7 strongly inhibited the urease. To comprehend the potential mode of action, a molecular docking research was conducted against urease and -amylase. The research may help in the quest for novel chemical compounds that would be effective against bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics.
