Enantiomerically pure (R)-(1-phenylethyl)-3,5-bisRE)-arylmethylidenejtetrahydro-4(1H)-pyridinones were synthesized for the first time, and their 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrite oxides affording diand trispiroheterocycles regio- and stereoselectively in moderate yields was investigated. These compounds were evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB) and multi-drug-resistant M. tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Among the compounds screened, the dispiroheterocycle, namely, (5R,6R,105)3,9-bis(4-chloropheny1)-10-(2,4-dichloropheny1)-14-[(E)-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methylidenel-12-1(R)-1- phenylethyl]-1,4,7-trioxa-2,8,12-tri-azadispiro14.0.4.41tetradeca-2,8-diene 5m was found to possess the maximum activity with MIC of 0.49 p.M against MTB, being 9.6 and 15.6 times more potent than ciprofloxacin and ethambutol, respectively. Against MDR-TB, 5m displayed maximum activity with an MIC of 0.49 uM, with it thus being more active than rifampicin, isoniazid, ciprofloxacin and ethambutol by 7.8, 23, 77 and 124 times, respectively. 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
