Beta-hairpin peptidomimetics of the general formula (I), cyclo(P 1 -p 2 -p 3 -p 4 -p 5 -p 6 -p 7 p 8 p 9 -p 10 -p 11 -p 12 -T 1 -T 2 ], and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, with P 1 to P 12 , T 1 and T 2 being elements as defined in the description and the claims, have broad spectrum Gram-negative antimicrobial activity to e.g. inhibit the growth or to kill microorganisms such as Klebsiella pneumoniae and/or Acinetobacter baumannii and/or Escherichia coli . They can be used as medicaments to treat or prevent infections or as disinfectants for foodstuffs, cosmetics, medicaments or other nutrient-containing materials. These peptidomimetics can be manufactured by a process which is based on a mixed solid- and solution phase synthetic strategy. |
