Abstract

A series of novel isoniazid (INH) analogues were synthesized by microwave assisted one pot reaction of INH, various benzaldehydes and dimedone in water with catalytic amount of DBSA. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anti-TB activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB) and multi-drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Among the 29 compounds, compound N-[9-[2-(benzyloxy)phenyl]-3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-1,8-dioxo-2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9-octahydro-10(1H)-acridinyl]isonicotinamide (12) inhibited MTB with MIC of <0.17 μM and MDR-TB with MIC of 0.69 μM.
