Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the principal etiological agent of tuberculosis (TB), infects over one-quarter of humanity and is now the leading cause of infectious disease mortality by a single pathogen. Macozinone {2-[4-(cyclohexylmethyl)piperazin-1-yl]-8-nitro-6-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-1,3-benzothiazin-4-one, C20H23F3N4O3S} is a promising new drug for treating drug-sensitive and drug-resistant TB that has successfully completed phase I clinical trials. We report the complete spectroscopic and structural characterization by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS, IR, and X-ray crystallography. The cyclohexyl moiety is observed to be nearly perpendicular to the core formed by the 1,3-benzothiazin-4-one and piperazine groups. The central piperazine ring adopts a slightly distorted chair conformation caused by sp2-hybridization of the nitro N atom, which donates into the electron-deficient 1,3-benzothiazin-4-one group.
