The synthesis of a novel series of thiolactone-isatin hybrids led to the discovery of tetracyclic by-products which displayed superior antiplasmodial activity. The tetracycles thus formed the basis of a more focused SAR study. Identified from this series is a compound with an IC(50) of 6.92 μM against the chloroquine-resistant (W2) strain of Plasmodium falciparum. Useful antimalarial SARs delineated include the need for substitution at C-5 of the isatin scaffold and the enhancement of activity by increasing the linker length. In contrast to their antimalarial activity, the tetracycles were devoid of antitubercular activity whereas the advanced intermediates displayed growth inhibitory activity against the H(37)Rv strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis as revealed by BACTEC, MABA and LORA assays.

D007783 Lactones Cyclic esters of hydroxy carboxylic acids, containing a 1-oxacycloalkan-2-one structure. Large cyclic lactones of over a dozen atoms are MACROLIDES. Lactone
D009169 Mycobacterium tuberculosis A species of gram-positive, aerobic bacteria that produces TUBERCULOSIS in humans, other primates, CATTLE; DOGS; and some other animals which have contact with humans. Growth tends to be in serpentine, cordlike masses in which the bacilli show a parallel orientation. Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
D010963 Plasmodium falciparum A species of protozoa that is the causal agent of falciparum malaria (MALARIA, FALCIPARUM). It is most prevalent in the tropics and subtropics. Plasmodium falciparums,falciparums, Plasmodium
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000995 Antitubercular Agents Drugs used in the treatment of tuberculosis. They are divided into two main classes: "first-line" agents, those with the greatest efficacy and acceptable degrees of toxicity used successfully in the great majority of cases; and "second-line" drugs used in drug-resistant cases or those in which some other patient-related condition has compromised the effectiveness of primary therapy.

D013329 Structure-Activity Relationship The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.
