M. Dolezal et al., Synthesis and antimycobacterial, antifungal, and photosynthesis-inhibitingevaluation of some anilides of substituted pyrazine-2-carboxylic acids, CHEM PAP-CH, 54(4), 2000, pp. 245-248
Condensation of chlorides of substituted pyrazine-2-carboxylic acids with r
ing-substituted anilines yielded a series of anilides of 6-chloropyrazine-2
-carboxylic, 5-(1,1-dimethylethyl) pyrazine-2-carboxylic or 6-chloro-5- (1,
1-dimethylethyl)pyrazine-2-carboxylic acids. Products were tested for their
antimycobacterial. antifungal, and photosynthesis-inhibiting activity. Som
e of them exhibited significative activity against Mycobacterium tuberculos
is (inhibition > 50 % at MIC = 12.5 mu g cm(-3)). The most active compound
(88 %) was 6-chloro-5-(1,1-dimethylethyl)pyrazine-2- carboxylic acid 3-fluo
roanilide.
