Abstract

: Since several Helicobacter pylori strains have become resistant to metronidazole, new nitroimidazole derivatives based on metronidazole were designed and synthesized with different substituents on imidazole nitrogen. The activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against 20 clinically isolated metronidazole-resistant H. pylori strains. Some synthesized compounds were effective against those metronidazole-resistant H. pylori strains. Three compounds exhibited the most potent inhibitory activities (MIC50 = 8 µg/mL and MIC90 = 16 µg/mL).
