Syntheses and Antituberculosis Activity of 1,3-Benzothiazinone Sulfoxide and Sulfone Derived from BTZ043.

ABSTRACT: The discovery of 1,3-benzothiazin-4-ones (BTZs), especially BTZ043 and PBTZ-169 as potent agents for the treatment of tuberculosis, prompted intensive research related to development of potential antituberculosis agents based on electron deficient nitroaromatic scaffolds. Herein we report the syntheses, computational and NMR studies and anti-TB activity of oxidation products, 1,3-benzothiazinone sulfoxide (BTZ-SO) and 1,3-benzothiazinone sulfone (BTZ-SO2) derived from BTZ043. The combined computational and NMR work revealed differences in the total charge densities and molecular shapes of the oxidation products. While docking studies still suggested similar interactions and binding patterns for both products with the target DprE1 enzyme, antituberculosis assays indicated remarkable differe
