The present disclosure also relates to compositions and methods of treating conditions and diseases that are mediated by bacteria. 
       BACKGROUND 
       [0002]    Vancomycin, a glycopeptide antibiotic, has long been a drug of choice for life threatening gram-positive bacterial infections. 1,2  Vancomycin inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to the peptidoglycan peptide terminus D-Ala-D-Ala found in bacterial cell wall precursors, sequestering the substrate from transpeptidase and inhibiting cell wall cross-linking. 2,3    
         [0003]    The alarming growth of antibiotic resistant superbugs such as vancomycin-resistant  Enterococci  and  Staphylococci  has become a major global health hazard. Vancomycin-resistant bacteria (VRB) developed resistance to vancomycin mainly by alteration of cell wall precursor; which leads to reduction in the binding constant of vancomycin to its target and subsequently results in loss of antibacterial activity. 1-3    
         [0004]    Significant efforts have been directed toward the discovery of next-generation glycopeptide antibiotics that address the emerging drug-resistance of bacteria, especially vancomycin resistant strains. 4-7  Thus, there is continuous need to identify and/or develop new compounds and/or derivatives that has enhanced activity against drug-resistant bacterial strains.

     Synthesis of cationic-lipophilic-vancomycin-sugar conjugates (13-17) 
       [0168]    About 1.0 equivalent of cationic-lipophilic-vancomycin analogue (6-10) was dissolved in 1:1 mixture of dry dimethyl formamide (1 mL) dry dimethyl sulfoxide (1 mL). To this two equivalents of compound 12 in 1 mL of dry dimethylformamide was added. The reaction mixture was cooled to about 0° C., and about 1.5 equivalents of 0.45 M HBTU solution in DMF was added followed by about 5.0 equivalents of diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA). The reaction mixture was then allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for about 8-12 h. The product was purified by preparative reversed-phase HPLC using about 0.1% trifluoro acetic acid in H 2 O/acetonitrile mixture and then lyophilized to afford tris-(trifluoroacetate) salts of cationic-lipophilic-vancomycin-sugar conjugates (13-17) with 60-70% yield. These conjugates were purified and characterized by  1 H-NMR and HR-MS (Table 1). The purification was done by preparative reverse phase HPLC using 0.1% Trifluoro acetic acid (TFA) in water/acetonitrile (0-100%) as mobile phase. C 18  column (10 mm diameter, 250 mm length) and UV detector (at 270 nm wave length) were used. The collected fractions, from HPLC were frozen by liquid N 2  and lyophilized in freeze dryer.

     In-Vitro Antibacterial Activity: 
     Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC): 
       [0174]    All test compounds were assayed in a micro-dilution broth format. Stock solutions were made by serially diluting the compounds using autoclaved millipore water or broth media. The antibacterial activity of the compounds was determined againstmethicillin-resistant  S. aureus  (MRSA), vancomycin-intermediate-resistant  S. aureus  (VISA), vancomycin-sensitive  E. faecium  (VSE), vancomycin-resistant  E. faecalis  and vancomycin-resistant  E. faecium  (VRE). Bacteria, to be tested, were grown for about 10 h in the suitable media, MSSA, MRSA and VISA were grown in Yeast-dextrose broth (about 1 g of beef extract, about 2 g of yeast extract, about 5 g of peptone and about 5 g of NaCl in about 1000 mL of sterile distilled water (pH-7)). For solid media, about 5% agar was used along with above mentioned composition. VSE and VRE were cultured in Brain Heart Infusion broth (Himedia). The bacterial samples were freeze dried and stored at −80° C. About 5 μL of these stocks were added to about 3 mL of the nutrient broth or Brain Heart Infusion broth and the culture was grown for about 6 h at about 37° C. prior to the experiments. This 6 h grown culture gives about 10 9  cfu/mL and this was determined by spread plating method. The 6 h grown culture was diluted to give effective cell concentration of about 10 5  cfu/mL, which was then used for determining MIC. Compounds were serially diluted, in sterile water (2-fold dilution is employed) in a way that the working concentration was about 10 μM for MRSA, and VSE while for VRE and VISA it was about 100 μM. About 50 μL of these serial dilutions were added to the wells of 96 well plate followed by the addition of about 150 μL of bacterial solution. The plates were then incubated at about 37° C., 150 rpm in the incubator and O.D at 620 nm was recorded at an interval of about 24 h using TECAN (Infinite series, M200 pro) Plate Reader. Each concentration had triplicate values and the whole experiment was done at least twice and the MIC value was determined by taking the average of triplicate O. D. values for each concentration and plotting it against concentration. The data was then subjected to sigmoidal fitting. From the curve the MIC value was determined, as the point in the curve where the O.D. was similar to that of control having no bacteria. 
         [0175]    The antibacterial activities of vancomycin derivatives and vancomycin against  Staphylococci  (MRSA and VISA) and  Enterococci  (VREm and VREs) were summarized in Table 2. The antibacterial activities of these derivatives were seen to be dependent on the length of alkyl chain appended to vancomycin. All the derivatives showed excellent antibacterial activity against both  Staphylococci  and  Enterococci . Amongst these, the derivative 14 bearing 1-octyl-pyridinium and cyclic and acyclic form of sugar moiety showed the best activity against MRSA and VISA. Further, most exciting results were obtained in case of vancomycin-resistant  Enterococci . When tested against highly pathogenic VREm, these derivatives exhibited minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in the range 0.09 to 0.37 μM. Again the derivative 14 showed MIC of 0.09 μM against VREm implying about &gt;7500-fold more active than vancomycin. 
         [0176]    In the present invention disclosure, we developed novel cationic-lipophilic-vancomycin-sugar conjugates using facile synthetic methodology. These derivatives showed strong, broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and about &gt;7500-fold more active than parent drug, vancomycin against VRE. Thus, this strategy can be a promising approach to develop new generation of antibiotics to tackle multidrug-resistant bacterial infections.

       [0177]    In-vivo activity against methicillin-resistant vancomycin intermediate  S. aureus  (MR-VISA): 
         [0178]    Mouse Neutropenic Thigh Infection Model: 
         [0179]    About six-week-old, female CD-1 mice (weight, ˜19-24 g) were used for the experiments. The mice were rendered neutropenic (˜100 neutrophils/ml) by injecting two doses of cyclophosphamide intraperitoneally 4 days (150 mg/kg) and 1 day (100 mg/kg) before the infection experiment. 50 μL of ˜10 CFU/mouse concentration of the bacterial inoculum (MR-VISA) was injected into the thigh. One hour after inoculation, animals were treated intravenously with saline, vancomycin, linezolid and compound 14 at 12 mg/kg body weight. At 24 h post first treatment, cohorts of animals were euthanized (using ether) and the thighs were collected aseptically. The thigh was weighed (0.7 g-0.9 g) and placed into 10 ml of sterile saline and homogenized. The dilutions of the homogenate were plated onto agar plates, which were incubated overnight at 37° C. The bacterial titer was expressed as log 10  CFU/g of thigh weight. 
         [0180]    The in-vivo efficacy of compound 14 in comparison with linezolid and vancomycin against MR-VISA was shown in ( FIG. 1 ). The bacterial density taken from animals prior to initiation of dosing was determined to be 7.8 log 10  CFU/g. After 24 h of the initial treatment, antibacterial activity was determined by finding the bacterial titer in the infected thighs. Vancomycin and linezolid resulted in minimal or no activity compared to vehicle treated mice (saline). In contrast, compound 14 showed excellent efficacy, where it produced ˜6.0 log 10  CFU/g reduction in bacterial count from the vehicle treated mice (ED 3-log kill ) 
       Advantage 
       [0181]    The above mentioned implementation examples as described on this subject matter and its equivalent thereof have many advantages, including those which are described. 
         [0182]    The disclosed compounds and/or derivatives in the present invention can provide better interaction with the cell wall of the bacteria through improved hydrogen bonding interactions. This increased association with bacterial cell wall precursors can serve as to inhibit the cell wall biosynthesis in both sensitive and resistant bacteria. 
         [0183]    Although the subject matter has been described in considerable details with reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof, other embodiment are possible. As such, the spirit and scope of the appended claims should not be limited to the description of the preferred embodiments contained therein.
