Synthesis and biological evaluation of propargyl acetate derivatives as anti-mycobacterial agents

BACKGROUND: The emergence of multidrug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has intensified efforts to discover novel drugs for tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Targeting the persistent state of Mtb, a condition in which Mtb is resistant to conventional drug therapies, is of particular...

description BACKGROUND: The emergence of multidrug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has intensified efforts to discover novel drugs for tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Targeting the persistent state of Mtb, a condition in which Mtb is resistant to conventional drug therapies, is of particular interest. METHODS: This study is focused on propargyl acetate derivatives. Eight molecules were designed based on propargyl alcohols and different acid anhydrides. RESULTS: All the synthesized compounds and commercially available ones were evaluated for anti-tuberculosis activity. CONCLUSIONS: Inhibitors against Mtb have been identified and characterized for further development into potential novel anti-tubercular drugs.
