Dual-specificity phosphatases (DSPs) are a subclass within the protein tyrosine phosphatase family (PTPs). A series of rhodanine-based inhibitors was synthesized and shown to be novel, potent, and selective inhibitors against the DSP family member JNK-stimulating phosphatase-1 (JSP-1). Compounds of this

A search for compounds which have previously unrecognized antiviral activity led to the discovery that rhodanine inhibits the multiplication of echovirus 12 and also the development of virus-induced morphologic changes. Eighteen derivatives and analogs of rhodanine were synthesized and tested

A perturbation of FtsZ assembly dynamics has been shown to inhibit bacterial cytokinesis. In this study, the antibacterial activity of 151 rhodanine compounds was assayed using Bacillus subtilis cells. Of 151 compounds, eight strongly inhibited bacterial proliferation at 2 μM.

Five series of (Z)-5-(4-(2-oxo-2-phenylethoxy)benzylidene)-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one derivatives (I-V) were synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for their anti-bacterial activity. Most of the synthesized compounds showed potent inhibition against several Gram-positive bacteria (including multidrug-resistant clinical isolates) with MIC values in the range of 1-32 μg/mL.
