- Abstract
Nitrothiazole derivatives have been reported to exhibit activity against aerobic, anaerobic, and microaerophilic bacteria. This activity profile makes the nitrothiazole compound class an ideal lead source against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which flourishes in varied environments with different oxygen concentrations. In this work, we investigated six nitrothiazole derivatives for antitubercular activity. The compounds exhibited potent activity, with compounds 9 and 10 possessing an equipotent MIC90 value of 0.24 µM. The compounds were investigated for cytotoxicity against HEK293 cells and hemolysis against red blood cells, and they demonstrated no cytotoxicity nor hemolytic effects, suggesting they possess inherent antitubercular activity.
