Abstract: In the present investigation, a series of bicyclic [2-(2,4-dimethylphenylthio)phenyl] aniline analogues were synthesized and characterized by IR, NMR (1H and 13C) and mass spectra. All newly synthesized 15 compounds were inspected for their in vitro antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H 37Ra in both active and dormant state using an established XTT Reduction Menadione assay (XRMA). The titled compounds exhibited minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC90) ranging from 0.05 to?>30 (μ g/mL). The potent four compounds were further evaluated in THP-1 infection model where they demonstrated significant antitubercular activity. All the ex vivo active were further evaluated for cytotoxic activity against THP-1, MCK-7 and HeLa cell lines in order to check selectivity index. All compounds were further screened against four different bacteria to assess their selectivity towards MTB. These derivatives could be considered as a precursor structure for further design of antituberculosis agent.
