A series of novel vancomycin analogues with quaternary ammonium moieties have been designed and synthesized for fighting with clinically isolated drug-resistant bacteria. Partial target molecules exhibited potent activity against the tested strains. Among all of the compounds, a triazole quaternary ammonium vancomycin (QAV) derivative QAV-a1 exerted the best antibacterial activities. QAV-a1 was found to be 4- to 32-fold more efficacious than vancomycin against MRSA. Meanwhile, QAV-a1 showed a go ...[more]
