摘要
Fungal infections have became a serious medical problem due to their high incidence and mortality. We describe the discovery and structure-activity relationships studies (SARs) of a series of novel biphenyl imidazole derivatives with excellent antifungal activities against Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans. The most promising compounds 12f-g and 19a-b exhibited excellent activity with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values in the range of 0.03125-2 mu g/mL. Preliminary mechanism studies showed that the potent antifungal activity of compound 12g stemed from inhibition of CYP51 in Candida albicans. Furthermore, compounds 12g and 19b exhibited low inhibition profiles for various human cytochrome P450 isoforms. The SARs and binding mode established in this study will be useful for further lead optimization. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
