Abstract: To develop an antibiotic having a novel mechanism of action, the present inventors have searched for a compound that has weak cytotoxicity, the physical property of high solubility in water, the effect of inhibiting both DNA gyrase GyrB and topoisomerase IV ParE subunits, and sufficient antibacterial activity. As a result, the present inventors have completed the present invention by finding that a compound of the present invention represented by the general formula (1), a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof, and a prodrug thereof have desirable properties. The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition (particularly, a preventive or therapeutic composition for infectious disease) comprising a compound represented by the formula (1), a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof, or a prodrug thereof as an active ingredient.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for effectively producing an optically active form of tetrasubstituted-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane derivative, which serves as a useful production intermediate for quinolonecarboxylic acid antibacterial agents, and intermediates for the derivative. The present invention is directed to a method for producing a compound (VII) according to the following scheme.

Abstract: A 1,6-?-glucan synthetase inhibitor is provided, having potent growth inhibition and having excellent safety. A compound is provided, capable of expressing in a wide spectral range and specifically or selectively, an antifungal effect based on its functional mechanism of 1,6-?-glucan synthesis inhibition. Also provided is a drug, a salt or hydrate thereof, especially an antifungal that contains the compound.
