Di-anionic self-associating supramolecular amphiphiles (SSAs) as antimicrobial agents against MRSA and < em > Escherichia coli < /em >

Chem Commun (Camb). 2021 Oct 26. doi: 10.1039/d1cc05455d. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHerein, we report a series of di-anionic supramolecular self-associating amphiphiles (SSAs). We elucidate the antimicrobial properties of these SSAs against both methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In addition, we show this class of compound to form both intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonded macrocyclic structures in the solid state.PMID:34698738 | DOI:10.1039/d1cc05455d
