A series of novel thienopyridines and pyridothienoquinolines ( 3a,b-14 ) was synthesized, starting with 2-thioxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitriles 1a and 1b . All compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against six bacterial strains. Compounds 3a,b, 4a, 5b, 6a,b, 7a, 9b, 12b, and 14 showed significant growth inhibition activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria compared with the reference drug. The most active compounds ( 4a, 7a, 9b, and 12b ) against Staphylococcus aureus were also tested for their in vitro inhibitory action on methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The tested compounds showed promising inhibition activity, with the performance of 12b being equal to gentamicin and that of 7a exceeding it. Moreover, the most promising compounds were also screened for their Escherichia coli DNA gyrase inhibitory activity, compared with novobiocin as a reference DNA gyrase inhibitor. The results revealed that compounds ( 3a, 3b, 4a, 9b, and 12b ) had the highest inhibitory capacity, with IC 50 values of 2.26-5.87 µM (that of novobiocin is equal to 4.17 µM). Docking studies were performed to identify the mode of binding of the tested compounds to the active site of E. coli DNA gyrase B.
