Abstract
The invention is directed towards novel naphthoquinone and naphthothiazole compounds, and methods of treating disorders related to MetAP, including tuberculosis and bacterial infection, using various naphthoquinone, hydroxyquinonline, and naphthothiazole compounds.
Claims5
A method of treating a disease or disorder associated with a bacterial infection in a subject, the method comprising the step of administering to the subject an effective amount of a compound of formula II-A:
- or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,
- wherein,
- W is NRDC(O)RD, N=C(RE)alkyl, N=C(RE)aryl, N=C(RE)heteroaryl, N=C(RE)aralkyl, or NRDCRB=N—OH;
- R′ is H or ORB;
- Q is H or ORB;
- or
- R′ and Q, together with the atoms to which each is attached, forms a heterocycloalkyl, which is optionally substituted;
- V is H or ORB;
- each RB is independently H, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted aralkyl, optionally substituted heteroaralkyl, or optionally substituted aryl;
- each RD is independently H, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted aralkyl, optionally substituted heteroaralkyl, or optionally substituted aryl;
- and
- each RE is independently H, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted aralkyl, optionally substituted heteroaralkyl, or optionally substituted aryl.
