Materials and Methods1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker Avance 300 or 400 or 500 spectrometer

and are referred to the residual solvent signal: dimethylsulfoxide-d6(2.50) for 1H and (39.52)

for 13C; CDCl3: (7.26) for 1H and (77.16) for 13C. Chemical shifts (δ) are given in ppm and

coupling constants (J) were measured in Hz. The following abbreviations are used; s-singlet,

d-doublet, dd-doublet of doublet, t-triplet, td-triplet of doublet, dt-doublet of triplet, q-

quartet, qd-quartet of doublet, qn-quintet, br-broad. ESI- and HR ESI-MS were recorded

using Finnigan MAT 1020B and Thermo Scientific Q Exactive hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap

mass; values are given in m/z. Column chromatography was carried out using silica gel (60–

120 mesh) packed in glass columns. Analytical TLC was carried out on Macherey-Nagel 60

F245aluminium-backed silica gel plates. Melting point of compound was measured on Stuart

melting point apparatus SMP3. Anhydrous solvents and chemical materials were purchased

from commercial sources.

Synthesis of 1b, 1c, 1d, 1f

6-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carboxylic acid (1b)

5-Methylpyridin-2-amine 1b1 (5g, 46.23 mmol) and N,N-dimethyl formamide dimethyl acetal (30 mL) were stirred at 50 °C for 4 hrs. Upon completion, reaction mixture was evaporated on rotary evaporator and dried. The dried residue, ethyl 2-bromoacetate (11.50 g, 69.29 mmol) and NaHCO3 (5.8 gm, 69.04 mmol) in DMF (30 mL) were stirred at 50 °C. The progress of reaction was monitored by TLC. After 15 hrs the reaction mixture was added in water (200 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2x150 mL). The combined organic phase was separated, washed with water (100 mL), brine (100 mL) and dried with sodium sulphate. The organic solvent was evaporated on rotary evaporator and crude material obtained was purified using silica gel column chromatography with 20% ethyl acetate in hexane. 1b2 was obtained as green liquid (5g, 53% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 9.11 (S, 1H), 8.25 (s, 1H), 7.66 (d, J = 9.1 Hz, 1H), 7.27 (dd, J = 9.1, 1.7 Hz, 1H), 4.41 (q, J = 7.1 Hz, 2H), 2.41 (s, 3H), 1.42 (t, J = 7.1 Hz, 3H); 13C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ 160.6, 147.1, 140.8, 130.5, 125.4, 124.2, 116.8, 115.4, 60.3, 18.3, 14.4; HRMS (ESI-MS):Calc. for C11H13N2O2 [(M+H)+]: 205.0972, Found: 205.0976.

Antibacterial assay

The screening panel consist of E. coli ATCC 25922, S. aureus ATCC 29213, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853, K. pneumoniae BAA-1705 and A. baumannii BAA-1605. The bacterial strains were procured from ATCC (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) and Mueller Hinton broth II (MHB II) (Becton Dickinson) was used to propagate the bacteria. The compounds were serially diluted utilizing 2-fold dilutions and bacteria were subsequently added to a final count of 104-105 cfu/ml. The 96-well plates were incubated at 37°C for 24 hrs and the antimicrobial activity was determined by visual inspection. The MIC of the active compounds was determined and was defined as the lowest concentration of the compound that inhibited visible growth after 24 hrs.
