Abstract: Amidino benzimidazoles have been identified as inhibitors of the bacterial KinA/Spo0F two-component system (TCS). Many of these inhibitors exhibit good in vitro antibacterial activity against a variety of susceptible and resistant Gram-positive organisms. The moiety at the 2-position of the benzimidazole was extensively modified. In addition, the regioisomeric benzoxazoles, heterocyclic replacements for the benzimidazole, have been synthesized and their activity against the TCS evaluated.
