- Abstract
- We have developed a first generation of hybrid sparsomycin-linezolid compounds into a new family of orally bioavailable biaryloxazolidinones that have activity against both linezolid-susceptible and -resistant gram-positive bacteria as well as the fastidious gram-negative bacteria Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrahalis. The convergent synthesis of these new compounds is detailed.
