Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of N-Sulfonyl Homoserine Lactone Derivatives as Inhibitors of Quorum Sensing in Chromobacterium violaceum
A novel series of N-sulfonyl homoserine lactone derivatives 5a–l has been designed, synthesized and evaluated for quorum sensing inhibitory activities towards violacein production. Of the compounds synthesized, compound 5h was found to possess an excellent level of enantiopurity (99.2% e.e.). The re...
