The oriented development of antituberculotics: salicylanilides.

摘要

On the basis of our previous results 22 salicylanilides were synthesized. The compounds were tested for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium kansasii, and Mycobacterium avium. The Free-Wilson method was used to evaluate structure-antimycobacterial activity relationships. 4-Chloro-N-(4-propylphenyl)salicylamide and 5-chloro-N-(4-propylphenyl)salicylamide were selected for preclinical studies.
