New insight into structure-activity of furan-based salicylate synthase (MbtI) inhibitors as potential antitubercular agents.


ABSTRACT: Starting from the analysis of the hypothetical binding mode of our previous furan-based hit (I), we successfully achieved our objective to replace the nitro moiety, leading to the disclosure of a new lead exhibiting a strong activity against MbtI. Our best candidate 1?h displayed a Ki of 8.8?µM and its antimycobacterial activity (MIC99?=?250?µM) is conceivably related to mycobactin biosynthesis inhibition. These results support the hypothesis that 5-phenylfuran-2-carboxylic derivatives are a promising class of MbtI inhibitors.
