RESUMO
Several potent oxazolidinone antibacterial agents were obtained by systematic modification of the linker between the five-membered heterocycle and the piperazinyl ring of RBx 7644 (Ranbezolid, 1) and its thienyl analogue 2, leading to the identification of an expanded spectrum compound RBx 8700 (6b).

Novel oxazolidinones were synthesized containing a number of substituted five-membered heterocycles attached to the 'piperazinyl-phenyl-oxazolidinone' core of eperezolid. Further, the piperazine ring of the core was replaced by other diamino-heterocycles. These modifications led to several compounds with potent activity against a spectrum of resistant and susceptible gram-positive organisms, along with the identification of ranbezolid (RBx 7644) as a clinical candidate.
