Bioactivity | Methyl 2-amino-5-bromobenzoate (compound 8/12) can be used for synthesis of 2-benzamidobenzoic acids, which are known FabH inhibitors. The derivates also inhibit PqsD, the pqs quorum sensing (QS) system of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, involving the production of a number of virulence factors and biofilm formation[1]. |
