A major mechanism underlying this resistance is the production of β-lactamases by pathogens. These enzymes are classified into four groups (A–D), with class B metallo-β-lactamases, particularly the NDM family, posing the highest threat. These zinc-dependent enzymes are capable of inactivating nearly all β-lactam antibiotics, and to date, there are no clinically approved inhibitors for this class. Previous studies have shown that certain derivatives of indole-2-carboxylic acid, hydroxamic acids, and glycine-based compounds can inhibit NDM-1 by interacting with Zn<sup>2+</sup> ions and amino acid residues within the enzyme’s active site. However, the antibacterial potential of indole-2-carboxamide derivatives of the aforementioned compounds has not yet been explored as inhibitors of metallo-β-lactamases. In the search for new candidates to develop specific metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors, a known indole-2-carboxylic acid-based NDM-1 inhibitor was modified to prepared previously undescribed analogues—indole-2-carboxamides bearing fragments derived from hydroxamic acid, glycine, and iminodiacetic acid. To accomplish this, a method commonly used in peptide synthesis was adapted, employing the condensing agent PyBOP. The resulting compounds demonstrated the ability to inhibit NDM-1 in the micromolar concentration range (IC<sub>50</sub> = 20–60 µM), highlighting the significant role of the substituent at position 2 in binding to the enzyme’s active site. It was shown that modifying the carboxyl group at position 2 of the indole core with functional fragments possessing intrinsic inhibitory activity leads to a reduction in the activity of the parent indole-2-carboxylic acid derivative.</p>","PeriodicalId":766,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Organic Chemistry","volume":"61 6","pages":"1134 - 1140"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145164458","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
