Given the clinical importance of metallo-β-lactamases (MβLs), a new scaffold, N-substituted carbamylmethyl mercaptoacetate thioether, was constructed. The obtained molecules 1 - 16 inhibited MβLs from all three subclasses, but preferentially L1 from subclass B3. Compound 9 with a p -carboxyphenyl substituent exhibited the broadest spectrum with at least 70% inhibition of enzymes from all subclasses at 100 μM, while compound 5 with a p -methylphenyl substituent was the most potent inhibitor of any individual enzyme, with 97% inhibition at 100 μM and an IC 50 value of 0.41 μM against L1. Isothermal titration calorimetry assays corroborate findings from UV-vis spectrophotometric assays that the inhibition of L1 by 5 is dose-dependent. Docking studies suggest that the carboxyl group, the sulfide atom, and the carbonyl group of the carbamyl coordinate Zn2 in a chelating fashion. Using E. coli cells expressing L1, 6 and 8 were able to decrease cefazolin minimum inhibitory concentration 8-fold.
