Tuberculosis (TB) is a devastating disease resulting in a death every 20 s. Thus, new drugs are urgently needed. Herein we report ten classes of compounds - oxazoline, oxazole, thiazoline, thiazole, pyrazole, pyridine, isoxazole, imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine and imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidine - which have good (micromolar) to excellent (sub-micromolar) antitubercular potency. The 5,6-fused heteroaromatic compounds were the most potent with MIC's as low as 37Rv, clinically relevant drug sensitive, multi- and extensively resistant Mtb strains as well as having good in vitro metabolic stability.

A series of N-((1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)arylamides was synthesized by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and afforded inhibitors of cancer cell growth. For example, compound 13e had an IC 50 of 46 nM against MCF-7 human breast tumor cells. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies demonstrated that (i) meta-phenoxy substitution of the N-1-benzyl group is important for antiproliferative activity and (ii) a variety of heterocyclic substitutions for the aryl group of the arylamide are tolerated. In silico COMPARE analysis of antiproliferative activity against the NCI-60 human tumor cell line panel revealed a correlation to clinically useful antimicrotubule agents such as paclitaxel and vincristine. This in silico correlation was supported by (i) in vitro inhibition of tubulin polymerization, (ii) G2/M-phase arrest in HeLa cells as assessed by flow cytometry, and (iii) perturbation of normal microtubule activity in HeLa cells as observed by confocal microscopy. The results demonstrate that N-((1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)arylamide is a readily accessible small molecule scaffold for compounds that inhibit tubulin polymerization and tumor cell growth.
