STUDIES ON AN AMIDE BASED MUTUAL PRODRUG: SYNTHESIS AND EVALUATION

Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

The aim of this study has been to prepare a useful drug, which could have broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity including antitubercular action. Thus, an amide-based mutual prodrug (NA-INH) was synthesized by condensing isoniazid with nalidixic acid following single-step synthesis. Its structure was established on the basis of elemental analysis, 1H NMR and Mass spectral data results. The mutual prodrug (NA-INH) was also evaluated for in-vitro antibacterial activity including anti-mycobacterial and antifungal activity.
