    Journal: Eur J Med Chem; 2015 Apr 13; 94():8-21. PubMed ID: 25747496.
    Abstract:
    A range of hexadentate 3-hydroxypyridin-4-ones have been synthesized. These compounds were found to possess a high affinity for iron(III), with logK1 values of about 34 and pFe values over 30. Antimicrobial assays indicated that they can inhibit the growth of three clinical isolates of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and three clinical isolates of Pseudomonas, suggesting that hexadentate 3-hydroxypyridin-4-ones have potential application in the treatment of wound infections.
