We claim
1. A novel feature of the present invention relates to the synthesis of a new quinazolinones, which contains proline amino acid instead of amino compounds.
2. A process for the preparation of formula II compounds in which the anthranilic acid and its halogenated derivatives were refluxed on sand bath to get the formula II compounds.
3. All the title compounds (A, B, C, D and E) are superior to the standard isoniazid drug.
4. Compounds derived from dibromo and mono iodo anthranilic acids (C and E) are
generally superior to the other title compounds (A, B and D).
5. A process for the synthesis of quinazolinones as antimycobacterial agents substantially
as herein described and illustrated. All the five title compounds synthesised were screened
for in vitro anti tubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis by using Alamar
Blue assay method. The standard drug, Isoniazid and the title compounds are compared for
antimycobacterial activity. The activity of the title compounds against mycobacterium
tuberculosis was checked at the concentrations of 100, 10, 1, 0.1 and 0.05 |Jg / ml and for
the standard drug, Isoniazid respectively. All the title compounds are sensitive to organism
in the concentrations of 100, 10, 1 and 0.1 µg / ml and two compounds derived from
dibromo and mono iodo anthranilic acids (C and E) are sensitive at 0.05 |µg / ml. Standard
drug Isoniazid is sensitive to organism only in the concentrations of 100, 10, 1 (Jg / ml.
