Abstract

We report herein the design, synthesis and antimycobacterial activity of 3,5-dinitrobenzamide derivatives containing fused ring moieties. Results reveal that many of the target compounds have considerable in vitro antitubercular activity. Especially, N-((2-(4-fluorophenyl)/N-((2-(3-fluorobenzyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquilin-6-yl)methyl)-3,5-dinitrobenzamides 18a and 20e exhibit potent MIC values of 0.056-0.078 μg/mL against both drug-sensitive Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H37Rv strain and two clinically isolated multidrug-resistant MTB (MDR-MTB) strains, opening a new direction for further SAR studies.
