Abstract

β³‐Octaarginine chains were attached to the functional groups NH and CO₂H of the antibacterial fluoroquinolones ciprofloxacin (→1) and enrofloxacin (→2), respectively, in order to find out whether the activity increases by attachment of the polycationic, cell‐penetrating peptide (CPP) moiety. For comparison, simple amides, 3–5, of the two antimicrobial compounds and β³‐octaarginine amide (βR₈) were included in the antibacterial susceptibility tests to clarify the impact of chemical modification on the microbiological activity of either scaffold (Table).
