Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis, and in particular to an intermediate for gipotassium and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Gepotidacin is a novel, orally active triazaacenaphthene-based bacterial type II topoisomerase inhibitor, first approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2025. It exerts its bactericidal effect by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase (encoded by the gyrA and gyrB genes) and topoisomerase IV (encoded by the parC and parE genes), thus blocking bacterial DNA replication. Its target is similar to that of fluoroquinolone antibiotics (such as ciprofloxacin), but they differ in structure and pharmacology. By inhibiting two different bacterial enzymes, gepotidacin is expected to have a low likelihood of developing resistance.
[0003] The structural formula of Gibbada Star is as follows:
[0004] The CAS number is 1075236-89-3.
