SPECIAL DESCRIPTION |
Fluoroquinolones
belong to a group of synthetic antibiotics that are derived from basic
structure of nalidixic acid and have substituents at N-1, C-5, C-7, position 8
and a fluorine atom at position 6. There are also polycyclic derivatives.
Quinolone antibiotics have a ketone at position 4 and a carboxylic group at
position 3. Fluoroquinolones inhibit the bacterial DNA gyrase or the topoisomerase
IV enzyme, resulting the inhibition of DNA replication and transcription.
Fluorine at position 6 enhances gyrase inhibition and cell penetration.
Piperaziny substituents provide activity against Gram-negative bacteria
and pyrrolidinyl moiety is active against Gram-positive cocci. They improve
water solubility needed oral application. The function substituted at position
8 IS to control anaerobe activity.
