<p>This invention provides cross-linked glycopeptide - cephalosporin compounds of formula I and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which are useful as antibiotics. This invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds; methods for treating bacterial infections in a mammal using such compounds; and processes and intermediates useful for preparing such compounds. As a vancomycin analogue is employed in the compounds of the present invention, the point of attachment for the linking moiety is amino acid 7 (AA-7) at position C-29. This position is also sometimes referred to as the '7d' or the 'resorcinol' position of vancomycin. Formula (I)</p> |
