[0099] Compounds of this invention displayed antibacterial activity in the range of about 0.005 μg/mL to greater than about 100 μg/mL against the microorganisms listed in Table 1 while the control demonstrated no antibacterial activity against these microorganisms. This antibacterial activity demonstrates the usefulness of the compounds as antibacterials.

[0100] It is meant to be understood that certain metabolites of compounds of this invention, produced by in vitro or in vivo metabolic processes, would also be useful as antibacterials and are meant to be embraced by this invention.

[0101] It is also meant to be understood that certain precursor compounds, which precursor compounds may be metabolized in vitro or in vivo to form compounds of this invention, are meant to be embraced by this invention.

[0102] The pharmacokinetic profiles of EXAMPLE 20, EXAMPLE 22, EXAMPLE 29 and EXAMPLE 31 were evaluated using cassette dosing protocols in dog. The cassette dosing protocol in dogs combined three test compounds with the reference compound (EXAMPLE 104 of commonly-owned U.S. Pat. No. 5,866,549), each at a dose of 1 mg/kg. The compounds for each cassette were formulated as a solution in an aqueous vehicle containing 10% ethanol and one equivalent hydrochloric acid. Groups of three male beagle dogs received either an intravenous dose (IV) or an oral dose (PO). Sequential blood samples were taken from each animal for 24 hours after dosing. The plasma concentrations of the test compound and reference compounds were simultaneously determined using HPLC-MS/MS following liquid-liquid extraction of the samples. The results are shown in TABLE 2, in which CLP is plasma clearance; T1/2 and Tmax are expressed in hours; Cmax is expressed in μg/mL; AUC is expressed in μg·h/mL; F is percent bioavaibility; and Vc and Vb (volumes of distibution) are expressed in L/Kg.
