Abstract

A series of thirty one novel 2-(((1-(substituted phenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)carbonyl)-3-methylquinoxaline-1,4-dioxide (7a-l), 3-(((1-(substituted phenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)carbonyl)-6-chloro-2-methylquinoxaline-1,4-dioxide (8a-l) and 2-(((1-(substituted phenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)carbonyl)-6,7-dichloro-3-methylquinoxaline-1,4-dioxide (9a-g) analogues were synthesized, characterized using various analytical techniques and single crystal was developed for the compounds 8g and 9f. Synthesized compounds were evaluated for in vitro anti-tubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain and two clinical isolates Spec. 210 and Spec. 192. The titled compounds exhibited minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranging from 30.35 to 252.00µM. Among the tested compounds, 8e, 8l, 9c and 9d exhibited moderate activity (MIC=47.6 - 52.0µM) and 8a exhibited significant anti-tubercular activity (MIC=30.35µM). Furthermore, 8e, 8l, and 9d were found to be less toxic against human embryonic kidney, HEK 293 cell lines. Finally, a docking study was also performed using MTB DNA Gyrase (PDB ID: 5BS8) for the significantly active compound 8a to know the exact binding pattern within the active site of the target enzyme.
