Abstract
Several enantiomerically pure (2,6-dimethyl-4-pyridinyl)quinolones, pr eviously shown to be potent inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase, exhibi t topoisomerase II inhibitory activity. Among these and other analogue s, topoisomerase II inhibitory potency was found to be a sensitive fun ction of the size and substitution of the bridge spanning the 1- and 8 -positions of the quinoline ring. The 6-fluoro group was required for activity.
