The design and synthesis of small molecules that target RNA is immensely important in antibacterial therapy. We had previously reported on the RNA binding of a series of 4,5-disubstituted 2-oxazolidinones that bind to a highly conserved bulge region of bacterial RNA. This biological target T box antitermination system, which is found mainly in Gram-positive bacteria, regulates the expression of several amino acid related genes. In an effort to amplify our library, we have prepared a library of 1 ...[more]
