Abstract

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides derived from substituted isatins and 1,3-thiazolane-4-carboxylic acid to a series of 1-methyl-3,5-bis[( E)-arylmethylidene]-tetrahydro-4(1 H)-pyridinones afforded novel spiro-pyrrolothiazoles chemo-, regio- and stereoselectively in quantitative yields. These compounds were screened for their in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB) and multi-drug resistant M. tuberculosis (MDR-TB) using agar dilution method. Among the synthesized compounds, spiro[5.3′′]-5′′-nitrooxindole-spiro-[6.3′]-1′-methyl-5′-(2,4-di-chlorophenylmethylidene)tetrahydro-4′(1 H)-pyridinone-7-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)tetra-hydro-1 H-pyrrolo[1,2- c][1,3]thiazole ( 9k) was found to be the most active with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.6 μM against MTB and MDR-TB.
