A series of DNA gyrase inhibitors were designed based on the X-ray structure of a parent thiophene scaffold with the objective to improve biochemical and whole-cell antibacterial activity, while reducing cardiac ion channel activity. The binding mode and overall design hypothesis of one series was confirmed with a co-crystal structure with DNA gyrase. Although some analogs retained both biochemical activity and whole-cell antibacterial activity, we were unable to significantly improve the activity of the series and analogs retained activity against the cardiac ion channels, therefore we stopped optimization efforts.
