Metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) are an emerging cause of bacterial resistance to antibiotic treatment. The VIM-2 beta-lactamase is the most commonly encountered MBLs in clinical isolates worldwide. Described here are potent and selective small molecule inhibitors of VIM-2 containing the arylsulfonyl-NH-1,2,3-triazole chemotype that potentiate the efficacy of the beta-lactam, imipenem, in Escherichia coli.
