Newly synthesized rifamycin derivatives, KRM-1648, KRM-1657, KRM-1668, KRM-1686, and KRM-1687, having the chemical structures of 3'-hydroxy-5'-(4-alkylpiperazinyl)-benzoxazinorifamycins (alkyl residues: isobutyl, propyl, sec-butyl, sec-butyl [R configuration], and sec-butyl [S configuration], respectively), were studied for their in vitro antimycobacterial activities. Representative (KRM-1648) MICs for 90% of the strains tested, determined by the agar dilution method on 7H11 medium, of various pathogenic mycobacteria (9 species, 174 strains) were as follows (in micrograms per milliliter): Mycobacterium tuberculosis (rifampin [RMP]-susceptible strains), less than or equal to 0.0125; M. tuberculosis (RMP-resistant strains), 12.5; M. kansasii, 0.05; M. marinum, less than or equal to 0.0125; M. scrofulaceum, 0.1; M. avium, 1.56; M. intracellulare, 0.1; M. fortuitum, greater than 100; and M. chelonae subsp. abscessus and M. chelonae subsp. chelonae, greater than 100. These values are more than 64 times lower than those of RMP, except for the values against RMP-resistant M. tuberculosis (8 times lower) and those against rapid growers, including M. fortuitum and M. chelonae (the same as those of RMP). The other derivatives had similar levels of in vitro activity against these mycobacteria. When murine peritoneal macrophages in which M. intracellulare was phagocytosed in vitro were cultured in the presence of the benzoxazinorifamycins (1 microgram/ml), much more rapid killing of the organisms ingested in the macrophages was seen compared with when the same amount of RMP was added to the medium. The addition of benzoxazinorifamycins at the concentration of 0.05 micrograms/ml caused more marked suppression of intracellular growth of the organisms compared with addition of RMP. KRM-1648 and KRM-1657 inhibited intracellular growth of M. tuberculosis, and their efficacies were much greater than that of RMP.
