Searching for Ideal Oxazolidinone for Treatment of Tuberculosis
Oxazolidinones represent a promising class of drugs for treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Linezolid, the first representative of this class, is highly effective; however, its use is limited due to its toxicity (myelosuppression ...

New Oxazolidinones for Tuberculosis: Are Novel Treatments on the Horizon?
Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a global health concern. Standard treatment involves the use of linezolid, a repurposed oxazolidinone. It is associated with severe adverse effects, including myelosuppression and mitochondrial toxicity.

An efficient chiral resolution of racemic baclofen using 2-oxazolidinones as chiral auxiliaries
An efficient large-scale preparation of enantiomerically pure (R)- and (S)-baclofen hydrochloride is described. The principal feature of this approach is the practical resolution of N-Boc-protected baclofen using 2-oxazolidinones as chiral auxiliaries ...

Facile Synthesis of Oxazolidinones as Potential Antibacterial Agents
An efficient microwave‐assisted synthesis route for novel oxazolidinone analogues has been developed. The general synthesis of these compounds began with an L‐proline‐mediated three‐component Mannich reaction between commercially available 3‐fluoro‐4 ...
