Introduction

At the present time, the frightening threat of pathogens with multidrug resistance acquirement to the well-established antimicrobial arsenal constitutes a serious public health threat. These organisms possessed the ability to withstand attack by antimicrobial drugs currently available, and the uncontrolled rise in resistant pathogens threatens lives. Such infections most commonly affect patients with decreased immunity, neoplastic disorders and undergoing organ transplantation [1]. On the other hand; Mycobacteria are ubiquitous organisms that are responsible to cause mycobacterium tuberculosis, the most common infectious diseases known by the mankind admitting high mortality rate worldwide. Due to the quiescent form of mycobacterium tuberculosis strains, many of the current frontline therapeutics have become ineffective by the imminent exigency of multi drug resistant [2-4]. The 2010 statistics from World Health Organization (WHO) indicated that, 1.3 million MDReTB cases will need to be treated in the 27 high MDReTB burden countries between 2010 and 2015 [5]. Thus the above mentioned factors reveal the necessity for newer, potent unique antibacterial agents to be implemented as a best way to develop effective therapy.

The exploration of new heterocycles that can accommodate potency to multiple biological (anti tuberculosis) targets remains an intriguing scientific endeavor. In continuation to extend our research [6] it was sought of interest to design and synthesize 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives hoping to go a step forward in the field of antimicrobial agents and thus, we undertook design, synthesis and examination of antitubercular activities of novel 2-Amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile clubbed 1,3,4-oxadiazoles as antitubercular precursors. 2- Amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile nucleus is a fertile source of bioactivity in the area of drug discovery because of its varied biological activities viz. antimicrobial [7,8], antiinflammatory [9-11], antituberculosis [12,13] and anticonvullsant [14] anticancer [15,16]. Moreover, It has long been known that compounds bearing 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring occupy a prominent place in medicinal chemistry due to its significant biological properties such as antimicrobial [17-22], antituberculosis [23-25] and anticancer [26].

Taking the above points in consideration, we studied the antituberculosis action of the resultant molecules against wide range of different human pathogenic microorganisms in order to obtain comprehensive SAR indications. Furthermore, according to the thumb rule for physicochemical parameter logP as calculated hydrophobicity, to a drug like molecule it must be lower than 5 to by-pass the cell barrier. To describe the uptake, distribution, biotransformation, and excretion of organic chemicals in biological systems, partition or distribution coefficient is critical elements [27] and hence, in this context, the newer molecules with appreciable lipophilic character are presented here in order to produce remarkable bioactivities.

A multiplet at 1.69-1.72 ppm & A multiplet at 2.51-2.54 ppm were assigned to the 2-amino-4,5,6,7- tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile ring proton. And 7.10 ppm & dd 7.43 ppm were assigned to the 4-fluoro phenyl ring.

Conclusion

A series of acetamide derivatives has been successfully synthesized and tested for their antitubercular activity. 2-Amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1- benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile is one of the active constituents present in many standard drugs, and is known to increase in pharmacological activity of the molecules as we have already reported its significant activity. The presence of 1,3,4-Oxadiazole moiety is also an instrumental in contributing the net biological activity. Herein, we have combined all these two potential unit, that is 2-Amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1- benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile clubbed substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety and studied biological behavior of the resultant systems. Overall conclusion placed for synthesized compounds is that most of the compounds shown very good promising activity as compared to standard drug for all representative panel anti tubercular strains.

Experimental

In vitro antituberculosis activity of compounds 5(a-j) was assessed against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. The results observed from BACTEC MGIT indicated that final derivatives 5e with 3,4,5-tri methoxy group to exhibited highest inhibition (99%) at a constant concentration level (6.25 mg/ml) against M. tuberculosis H37Rv. This compound was considered as a most potent analogue against mycobacteria and was found to indicate similar antituberculosis potency as that of standard drug pyrazinamide. According to BACTEC MGIT method analog 5c & 5g with chloro and bromo group has also shown potential activity s 6.25 mg/ml MIC level. Results of secondary biological screening using LowensteineJensen MIC method revealed that 5c, 5g with chloro and bromo group as well as compound 5e with 3,4,5-tri methoxy group substituted compounds showed 12.5 mg/ml of MIC against mycobacterial strain. All the remaining derivatives were found to exhibit moderate to poor activity at MIC ranging from 25 to 500 mg/ml.
