Abstract
Series of 3-phenyl-6,8-dichloro-2H-1,3-benzoxazine-2,4(3H)-dithiones, 3-arylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones and 3-arylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dithiones were synthesized, and the antimycobacterial activities of the derivatives evaluated in vitro. The compounds were active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and conditionally pathogenic mycobacteria (Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium avium). The replacement of oxygen by sulfur in 3-phenyl-6,8-dichloro-2H-1,3-benzoxazine-2.4(3H)-diones and 3-arylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones gave rise to an increase of antimycobacterial activity. The most active compound was 3-(3-chlorophenyl)-6,8-dichloro-2H-1,3-benzoxazine-2,4(3H)-dithione.
