Abstract
ABSTRACTA family of arylspiroborate compounds has been prepared from 2,3‐dihydroxynaphthalene and characterized fully using multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction studies were carried out on the tetramethylammonium (4) and calcium (6) derivatives. Compound 6 represents the first structurally characterized example of a calcium arylspiroborate salt. All compounds showed modest antifungal and antimycobacterial activities. These results have revealed a new class of compounds that should be further developed to design more potent and selective antitubercular agents. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
