The present invention also encompasses compounds and methods for treating inflammatory bowel disease specifically Crohn's Disease.

Claims (27)

1. A compound, the compound comprising Formula (IV):

wherein:

X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and OR 2 ;

R 2 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, PO(OH) 2 , acetyl, COR 5 , CO(OR 5 ), CO(CH 2 ) n NR 5 R 6 , hydrocarbyl and substituted hydrocarbyl;

n is an integer from 1 to 10;

Z is O;

Y is selected from the group consisting of O, CH(OH), CH(OR 5 ), CHNR 5 R 6 , CH 2 , S, and NR 5 ;

R 1 is selected from the group consisting of CH 3 , CF 3 , halogen, Cl, F, Br, I, OH, NH 2 , NR 5 R 6 , OCH 3 , CO 2 CH 3 , CONHCH 3 , alkyl, cyclopropyl, OR 5 , CO 2 R 5 , CONR 5 R 6 , hydrocarbyl, and substituted hydrocarbyl;

R 5 is selected from the group consisting of H and an optionally substituted alkyl, aryl, heterocycle, and cycloalkyl;

R 6 and R 7 are selected from the group consisting of an optionally substituted alkyl, cycolalkyl, aryl, and heterocycle;

R 8 and R 11 are independently selected from the group consisting of CONHCH 3 , COOCH 3 , COOH, CONH(heterocycle), heterocycle, H, alkyl, cyclopropyl, aryl, OR 5 , NR 5 R 6 , NR 5 COR 6 , NR 5 COOR 6 , NR 5 CONR 6 , NR 5 SO 2 R 6 , COR 5 , SO 2 R 5 , halogen, CN, NO 2 , COOR 5 , CONR 5 R 6 , NCOR 7 , NCONR 7 , NCOOR 7 , SO 2 NR 5 R 6 , and NHSO 2 R 7 ;

R 12 is selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl, CH 2 R 13 , CH 2 COR 13 , CH 2 CONHR 13 , CH 2 CONHR 13 R 14 , CH 2 CONH(CH 2 ) 2 R 14 , (CH 2 ) 2 NR 13 , (CH 2 ) n NR 13 , CH 2 COOH, CH 2 CONH(CH 2 ) 2 NH 2 , and (CH 2 ) 2 N(CH 3 ) 2 ;

R 13 is selected from the group consisting of —OH and an optionally substituted heterocycle, hydrocarbyl, and substituted hydrocarbyl;

R 14 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl and NH 2 .

2. A method of treating a urinary tract infection, the method comprising administering a compound of claim 1 to a subject in need thereof.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the subject is further administered a bactericidal composition.

4. A method of preventing a urinary tract infection, the method comprising administering a compound of claim 1 to a subject in need thereof.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the subject is further administered a bactericidal composition.

6. A method of reducing the resistance of a bacterium to a bactericidal compound, the method comprising administering a compound of claim 1 to a subject in need thereof.

7. A method of treating inflammatory bowel disease, the method comprising administering a compound of claim 1 to a subject in need thereof.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the inflammatory bowel disease is Crohn's disease.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein treating comprises reducing symptoms associated with inflammatory bowel disease.

10. A method of inhibiting FimH binding to mannose, the method comprising contacting a compound of claim 1 with FimH, wherein the compound binds FimH and inhibits binding to mannose.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the mannose is exposed on a bladder cell.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the mannose is exposed on an intestinal cell.

13. A method of treating a catheter-associated urinary tract infection, the method comprising administering a compound of claim 1 to a subject in need thereof.

14. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the compound is selected from the group consisting of:
