Pentamidine, an FDA-approved antiparasitic drug, was recently identified as an outer membrane disrupting synergist that potentiates erythromycin, rifampicin, and novobiocin against Gram-negative bacteria. The same study also described a preliminary structure-activity relationship using commercially available pentamidine analogues. We here report the design, synthesis, and evaluation of a broader panel of bis-amidines inspired by pentamidine. The present study both validates the previously observed synergistic activity reported for pentamidine, while further assessing the capacity for structurally similar bis-amidines to also potentiate Gram-positive specific antibiotics against Gram-negative pathogens. Among the bis-amidines prepared, a number of them were found to exhibit synergistic activity greater than pentamidine. These synergists were shown to effectively potentiate the activity of Gram-positive specific antibiotics against multiple Gram-negative pathogens such as Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli, including polymyxin- and carbapenem-resistant strains.

A series of bromotetracenequinones 1 and bromotetracenes 2 were prepared from 4-bromophthalic anhydride. The parent tetracenequinone 1a and tetracene 2a were sparingly soluble in organic solvents. In contrast, dipropyl-substituted tetracenequinone 1b and
