Abstract: A series of 14-diarylidene-1-phenethylpiperidine-4-one derivatives were synthesized using Claisen-Schmidt condensation reactions. The synthesized compounds were screened for their antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H₃₇Rv using High Throughput Screen (HTS) using an assay adapted from the microdilution alamarBlue (AB) broth assay reported by Collins and Franzblau and additionally an alternative method for end-point detection was assessed using the Promega reagent BacTiter-Glo™ Microbial Cell Viability (BTG). Most of the compounds showed low-to-moderate activity with MIC of less than 30μM. Compound (3d) (3E,5E)-3,5-bis (4-triflouromethylbenzyledene)- 1-phenethylpiperidin-4-one was found to be the most active with MIC of 27.00 μM.
