Abstract:

Small molecules with oxathiazol-2-one moiety were recently reported as potent inhibitors of Mycobacterium bovis var. bacilli Calmette-Guérin (BCG), among which HT1171 was the most potent and selective proteasome inhibitor. Herein we synthesized a series of novel compounds by bioisosteric replacement of the oxathiazol-2-one ring with 3H-1,2,4-dithiazol-3-one, and also fifteen 1,3,4-oxathiazol-2-one molecules in order for potency comparison and structure-activity relationship elucidation since their antibacterial effects on the virulent strains were not evaluated before. All the compounds were assessed for antitubercular activities on the virulent H37Rv strain by a serial dilution method. Among the tested compounds, 3H-1,2,4-dithiazol-3-one compound 4n was found to be the most active with a lowest MIC(90) value of 1 μg/mL. Furthermore, the cytotoxicities of all the compounds against normal human liver cell line L02 were determined by an MTT method. Compound 4n displayed a lower inhibitory ratio than HT1171 at the concentration of 100 μM, indicating its better safety profile.
