Tuberculosis (TB) causes millions of deaths every year, ranking as one of the most dangerous infectious diseases worldwide. Because several pathogenic strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) have developed resistance against most of the established anti-TB drugs, new therapeutic options are urgently needed. An attractive target for the development of new antitubercular agents is the salicylate synthase MbtI, an essential enzyme for the mycobacterial siderophore biochemical machinery, absent in human cells. A set of analogues of I and II, two of the most potent MbtI inhibitors identified to date, was synthesized, characterized, and tested to elucidate the structural requirements for achieving an efficient MbtI inhibition and a potent antitubercular activity with this class of compounds. The structure-activity relationships (SAR) here discussed evidenced the importance of the furan as part of the pharmacophore and led to the preparation of six new compounds (IV-IX), which gave us the opportunity to examine a hitherto unexplored position of the phenyl ring. Among them emerged 5-(3-cyano-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxylic acid (IV), endowed with comparable inhibitory properties to the previous leads, but a better antitubercular activity, which is a key issue in MbtI inhibitor research. Therefore, compound IV offers promising prospects for future studies on the development of novel agents against mycobacterial infections.

A water-mediated and catalyst-free practical method for the synthesis of a new series of pharmaceutically interesting functionalized 5-(2-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones has been accomplished based on a one-pot multicomponent reaction between arylglyoxal monohydrates, 2-aminopyridines/2-aminopyrimidine, and barbituric/N,N-dimethylbarbituric acids under reflux conditions. The salient features of this protocol are avoidance of any additive/catalyst and toxic organic solvents, use of water as reaction medium, clean reaction profiles, operational simplicity, ease of product isolation/purification without the aid of tedious column chromatography, good to excellent yields, and high atom-economy and low E-factor.

In this research, in order to synthesize a series of ethyl 2-amino-4-benzoyl-5-oxo-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-3-carboxylates, a green and an efficient method is proposed through one-pot three-component reaction of substituted arylglyoxals, ethyl cyanoacetate, and 4-hydroxyquinolin-2(1H)-one in the presence of terapropylammonium bromide as a catalyst in good yields. All synthesized new substances were characterized by FTIR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectral data and elemental analysis.
