Abstract

A series of 2-((4-fluorophenyl)thio)quinoline linked (bis)-trifluoromethyl substituted N-arylquinolone derivatives 8ax have been synthesized via a one-pot multicomponent reaction. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis. In vitro antimicrobial activity of the synthesized compounds was investigated against a representative panel of pathogenic strains by Broth microdilution method and in vitro antituberculosis activity was evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv bacteria by Lowenstein–Jensen method.
