Our aim was to identify new multi-target compounds endowed with both anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial activities for treatment of human infections. Diflunisal, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, has recently been repurposed for its anti-virulence properties against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Effective synthesis of some aza-analogs of the anti-inflammatory drug diflunisal was carried out following the route involving key oxazole intermediates to obtain o- and m-hydroxypyridinecarboxylic acid derivatives. The newly synthesized diflunisal aza-analogs did not exhibit cytotoxic activity up to 80 μM and some of them exhibited anti-inflammatory activities, decreasing the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and prostaglandins induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharide in human primary macrophages. Ten of the diflunisal aza-analogs were found to have interesting antibacterial activity, sensitizing S. aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Enterococcus faecium, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa to the antibacterial effects of beta-lactam antibiotics and protein synthesis inhibitors.

A rapid and general access to diversely substituted 5-alkoxyoxazoles 2 (i.e., R1, R2 = alkyl, phenyl) from easily accessible α-triflyloxy/hydroxy esters 1 and nitriles with good yields (41-76%) is reported. The versatility of the cyc
