Abstract

Background: Chemical modification of Oxadiazole may lead to a potent therapeutic agent. A series of novel 5-pyrazyl-2-sulfanyl-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole derivatives (5ag) have been synthesised utilising pyrazinoic acid as a precursor. The new oxadiazole compounds were docked against potential targets and evaluated for antibacterial and antitubercular activity.

Methods: The 5-pyrazyl-2-substituted sulfanyl-1, 3,4-oxadiazole derivatives (5a-g) were synthesized from the crucial intermediate 2-sulfanyl-5-pyrazyl-1, 3,4-oxadiazole (4), which was prepared by treating the 2-pyrazyl hydrazide with CS2 and pyridine. IR, 1HNMR, 13C, MS and elemental analyses were used to confirm the chemical structures.

Results: Antimicrobial activity was determined for each synthesized compound. Additionally, compounds were evaluated for antitubercular activity against the Mycobacterium Tuberculosis H37Rv strain. Compounds 5c, 5g, and 5a had a favourable antibacterial profile, while 5c and 5g (MIC = 25 g/ml) demonstrated potential antitubercular activity when compared to the other produced compounds. Molecular docking experiments using V-Life Science MDS 4.6 supplemented the biological data.

Conclusion: Each compound has been tested for antibacterial and antitubercular action against a variety of microorganism strains and exhibits considerable activity. Additionally, molecular docking analysis confirmed the experimental results by describing improved interaction patterns.

Keywords: Antimicrobial, antitubercular, oxadiazole, pyrazinoic acid, molecular docking, v-life.
