Ethambutol is one of the front-line agents recommended by the World Health Organization for the treatment of tuberculosis. In an effort to develop more potent therapies to treat tuberculosis, novel unsymmetrical ethambutol analogues were successfully synthesized by a new route utilizing novel building blocks synthesized using Ellman’s sulfinyl chemistry. The resulting analogues were tested for anti-tuberculosis activity yielding compounds with comparable anti-tuberculosis activity to ethambutol and increased lipophilicity that may instill better tissue penetration and serum half-life.
The synthesis, biological evaluation and structure–activity relationships of novel ethambutol analogues as anti-tuberculosis agents are reported.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
