SYNTHESIS OF SOME NOVEL 1,2,4-TRIAZOLE ANALOGUES AS POTENTIAL ANTI-TUBERCULAR AGENTS

A series of 5-(N-substituted carboxamidoethylthio)-3-(3'pyridyl)-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole derivatives (6a-j) were synthesized and evaluated for anti-tubercular activity. The derivatives were purified and structures were elucidated by spectral and elemental analyses. They were screened in-vitro at 10µg/mL concentration against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV (ATCC 27294). Compounds 6e and 6h were found active as they exhibited IC50 and IC90 values at < 100µg/mL.
