RESUMEN
The purpose of this study was to prepare various 4-substituted N-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole derivatives using click chemistry. The derivatives were screened in vitro for antimicrobial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv (ATCC 27294) using the Alamar Blue susceptibility test. The activity was expressed as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in µg/mL (µM). Derivatives of isoniazid (INH), (E)-N'-[(1-aryl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-yl)methylene] isonicotinoyl hydrazides, exhibited significant activity with MIC values ranging from 2.5 to 0.62 µg/mL. In addition, they displayed low cytotoxicity against liver cells (hepatoma HepG2) and kidney cells (BGM), thereby providing a high therapeutic index. The results demonstrated the potential and importance of developing new INH derivatives to treat mycobacterial infections.

The fluoroquinolones are an important family of synthetic antimicrobial agents being clinically used over the past thirty years. In addition, some fluoroquinolones have been used in the development of anticancer drugs, and others have demonstrated anti-HIV activity. Furthermore, there has been some additional work investigating the effect of metal ions on biological activity. Aiming to obtain novel palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes that exhibit biological activity, we have synthesized complexes using fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, ofloxacin, sparfloxacin, and gatifloxacin) as ligands. The compounds were characterized using IR and NMR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric and elemental analyses. The complexes show activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H(37)Rv. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the complexes was determined.
