Construction and functionalization of fused pyridine ring leading to novel compounds as potential antitubercular agents

A series of fused and functionalized pyridine derivatives were designed, synthesized and tested for their potential antitubercular properties. All these novel compounds were prepared by using multistep methods involving the construction of pyridine ring as a key synthetic step. Some of these compounds were found to be interesting when tested for their antitubercular properties in vitro and one of them appeared as an attractive and potential antitubercular agent.
