Multi-drug resistant (MDR) and extremely drug resistant (XDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains have turned tuberculosis (TB) as "on the verge of eradication" to "most life threatening" disease. Furthermore, synergy with HIV and other immunosuppressive disease have strengthened its prevalence. This research reports small molecule anti-infectives which are specifically potent against several strains and isolates of TB. The hit compound 7f has also proved to be active against almost 25 clinical isolates comparable to marketed anti-TB agents. (C) 2015 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
