New triclosan (TRC) analogs were evaluated for their activity against the enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase InhA in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). TRC is a well-known inhibitor of InhA and specific modifications to its positions 5 and 4′ afforded twenty-seven derivatives; of these compounds seven derivatives showed an improved potency in comparison to TRC. These analogs were active against both drug-susceptible and drug-resistant Mtb strains. The most active compound in this series, 3, had an MIC value of 0.6 μg/mL (1.5 μM) against wild-type Mtb. At a concentration equal to its MIC, this molecule inhibited the purified InhA enzyme to the extent of 98%, and it showed an IC50 value of 90 nM. Compounds 3 and 14 were able to inhibit the biosynthesis of mycolic acids. Furthermore, mc24914, an Mtb strain overexpressing inhA, was resistant to the compounds 3 and 14, supporting the notion that InhA is the likely molecular target of the TRC derivatives presented herein.
