Ianthelliformisamine C ditrifluoroacetate

Ianthelliformisamine C ditrifluoroacetate is a bacterial inhibitor that enhances the activity of antibiotics against resistant Gram-negative bacteria. This compound has been shown to significantly improve the efficacy of doxycycline against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Its mechanism of action involves inducing ATP efflux and causing membrane depolarization in bacterial cells. Ianthelliformisamine C ditrifluoroacetate is synthesized using peptide coupling, resulting in high chemical yields ranging from 27% to 91%, making it a valuable tool for research in combating antibiotic resistance.
