Twenty six 2,6-disubstituted 4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-c]pyridine-3-carboxamide derivatives were designed by molecular hybridization approach using and synthesized from piperidin-4-one by five step synthesis. Compounds were evaluated for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) pantothenate synthetase (PS) inhibition study, in vitro activities against MTB, cytotoxicity against RAW 264.7 cell line. Among the compounds, 6-(4-nitrophenylsulfonyl)-2-(5-nitrothiophene-2-carboxamido)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-c]pyridine-3-carboxamide (11) was found to be the most active compound with IC50 of 5.87 +/- 0.12 mu M against MTB PS, inhibited MTB with MIC of 9.28 mu M and it was non-cytotoxic at 50 mu M. The binding affinity of the most potent inhibitor 11 was further confirmed biophysically through differential scanning fluorimetry. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
