Structurally modified analogues of naturally occurring antibiotic thiolactomycin, substituted at 4-position of the thiolactone ring have been prepared and evaluated for their antitubercular activity. Some of the compounds have exhibited potential activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
The preparation and antitubercular properties of a series of phthalimido- and naphthalimido-linked phenazines are described. Some of these new compounds inhibited the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ATCC 27294, Mycobacterium avium ATCC 49601, Mycobacterium intracellulare ATCC 13950 and some clinical isolates.
A new series of antituberculosis agents 6-9 was designed, synthesized and evaluated for antituberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and clinical isolates in an agar dilution method. Compound 9h showed comparable in vitro activity (MIC) to isoniazid against M. tuberculosis H37Rv and clinical isolates (sensitive strains) and superior activity against resistant strains of M. tuberculosis.
