Synthesis of Certain Derivatives of Schiffbases

Microbiological Studies A definitive diagnosis of terbium can only be made my culturing Mycobacterium tuberculosis organisms from a type taken from the patient (Most often sputum, but whitethorn also include pus, cerebero spinal fluid (CSF)), biopsied tissue, etc. Sputum dirtys and cultures should be done for acid-fast bacilli. The prefer method for the identification is fluorescence microscopy which is more keen than conventional Ziehl- Neelson staining denoted by Steingart et al. , 2006 6.If sputum is not produced, specimens can be obtained by gastric washings, an laryngeal swab, broncscopy with broncho alveolar lavage or fine needle aspiration of a collection. A comparative field of operation found that inducing three sputum samples is more highly sensitive than three gastric washings. Many types of culture media are available. Traditionally Lowenstein Jensen (LJ), Kirchner or Middle Brook media (7H9, 7H10, 7H11 and 7H12) are used for cultivating of Mycobacterial species. A culture of the acid-fast bacilli distinguishes the assorted forms of Mycobacteria.New automated systems that are faster include BACTEC 460 TB, BACTEC 9000 and the Mycobacterial growth Indicator tube (MGIT). The microscopic observation drug susceptibility assay (MODS) culture may be faster and more accurate method. Drugs Used In Tuberculosis in the current scenario Active tuberculosis will kill about both of every three people affected if left untreated. Treated tuberculosis if taken up early has a mortality rate of less than 5%. The standard short course interference for tuberculosis comprises of Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Pyrazinamide and Ethambutol for two months, then Isoniazid and Rifampicin alone for a further four months.For latent tuberculosis, the standard treatment is six to nine months of Isoniazid alone. Drug regimens are abbreviated in a standardized manner. a). Streptomycin is STM or S b) Isoniazid is INH or H c) Rifampicin is RMP or R d) Ethambutol is EMB or E e) Pyra zinamide is PZA or Z. a)According to WHO norms, there are six classes of second line drugs that are used for the treatment of tuberculosis. A drug may be classified as second line instead of first line for one of two possible reasons it may be less telling than the first line drugs or it may produce toxic side effect.They are classified based on their chemical inwardness Aminoglycosides Amikacin and Kanamycin b)Polypeptides Capreomycin c)Fluoroquinolones Ciprofloxacin d)Thioamides Ethionamide, Prothionamide and Cycloserine. e)Para-amino Salicylic acid. Tuberculosis has been treated by combination therapy over fifty years. Single drug treatment is ineffective and regimens that use only star drugs result in the rapid development of resistance and thus treatment results in failure. The rationale for using multiple drugs to treat tuberculosis is based on simple probability.The frequency of spontaneous mutations that confer resistance to an individual drug is well known 1 in 10 7 for Ethambutol (EMB) 1 in 108 for streptomycin (STM) and Isoniazid (INH) 1 in 10 10 for Rifampicin (RMP). A patient with extensive pulmonary tuberculosis has approximately 10 12 bacteria in his body and therefore will probably be harbouring approximately 10 5 Ethambutol resistant bacteria, 10 4 Streptomycin resistant bacteria, 104 Isoniazid resistant bacteria and 102 Rifampicin resistant bacteria respectively.DOTS stands for Directly Observed Therapy, Short course and is a major plank in the WHO global tuberculosis eradication programme. The WHO advises that all tuberculosis patients should have atleast the first two months of their drug therapy should be spy with the aid of observer within that society. DOTS is used with intermittent dosing Thrice weekly (Rifampicin, Isoniazid, Ethambutol and Pyrazinamide) or twice weekly. The relative incidence of major adverse effects has been carefully described . a)Isoniazid Hepatitis, Neuropathy 0. 49%. )Rifampicin Skin rash, Thrombocy topenia and Hepatitis 0. 43 % c)Pyrazinamide Skin rash and Hepatitis 1. 48 % d)Streptomycin vertigo 0. 43 % Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR and XDR TB) Multi Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is defined as tuberculosis that is resistant at least to Isoniazid and Rifampicin isolates. In the year 2006 Extensively- Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (XDR-TB) has emerged and defined as multi drug resistant tuberculosis that is resistant to quinolones and also to any one of kanamycin, capreomycin or amikacin.A 1997 survey of 35 countries found that 2% of the tuberculosis populations are infected by drug resistant tuberculosis. The highest rates were in USSR, The Baltic states, Argentina, India and China. In 2006, MDR TB in New York city has been increased to 20-30%. Annual risk of mortality rates increases by 10-15%. There is currently an epidemic of XDR-TB in South Africa. The volcanic eruption was first reported as a cluster of 53 patients in a rural hospital in Kwazulu Natal of w hom 52 died . The treatment and vista of MDR-TB are much more akin to that of cancer than to that for infection.In these aspects, molecular manipulation is a productive source of new drugs. This inquiry work pertains to the adaption of Schiff bases on isoniazid to explore the new drugs with a desire to obtain highly potent, more specific and less toxic drugs. In the foregoing literature retrieval, it had been observed that the drug design can be performed by molecular manipulation and resulting in new productive drugs. The biological ruminate of natural products with medicinally useful property and some of the chemical structure and its analogs had furnished to lead compounds, and its variation in the biological behavior.The pre-existing tuberculosis had made a dispute effect of medicinal chemists resulting in the extreme drug resistance. The performance of molecular manipulation still existed in a major line approach for the baring of new drug analogues. To synthesize a deri vative, an intermediate step has to be performed and to proceed for the further molecular manipulation. Combination of two or more alert moieties in to one is a common procedure of manipulation and this can be possibly result in augmenting the activity, removal of untoward side effects and particularly to prevent development of resistance by the infectious microorganisms.Abundant literature support were available with regard to the study of Schiff bases as potent antibacterial, antifungal, antihypertensive, antiviral and anticancer perspectives. Schiff bases were the intermediate for the synthesis of azetidine -2 & 4- ones, thiazolidine -2 & 4- ones, triazoles & tetrazoles. It was interesting to observe that some analogues of Schiff bases were combined with other moieties like phenothiazines,hydrazines and some hydrazide derivatives of carboxylic acid resulting in a relegate performance in their respective biological activities.Hence, it was our interest to associate the Schiff ba ses with the primary drug isoniazid. Since Isoniazid is a well known antitubercular drug. As a abundant number of reports were been available regarding the antitubercular perspectives of the isoniazid, there is still lacuna existing in the study of Schiff bases in the multi drug and extremely drug resistant M. tb strains. This study will full fill the properties of Schiff bases relevant to the prevailing drug resistant tuberculosis. Biological activities of Schiff bases Schiff bases are of interest and its important moiety which is associated with biological activity.Initially, most of the research program has been conducted to explore the antimicrobial perspectives of Schiff base derivatives. Based on the intermediate Schiff base various molecular manipulation were attempted to investigate and discover an effective antibacterials, antifungals & antiviral agents. In this preview of literature the various activities of Schiff bases pertaining to antibacterial perspectives has been s tudied. 1. Hearn et. al. , 2003 7 performed enzymatic acylation of the antitubercular isoniazid (INH) by N-acetyl transferases reduces therapeutic effectiveness of the drug.Since it dealt with the major metabolic piece of ground for INH in pitying beings, many of these derivatives were prepared and screened against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the mice. They conclude the structural cogners of metabolites of INH may serve as remarkable leads in antitubercular drug discovery and in the exploration of the mode of action of INH. 2. Tarek Aboul fadi et. al. , 2003 8 had synthesized N- alkyl derivative of INH and the Pharmacokinetic studies were been carried out in the bovine and sensitive strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.The pharmacokinetic study revealed that the rate and extent absorption of the tested derivatives. They show relative bioavailability of 183. 15 and 443. 25 respectively. 3. Sultana et. al. , 2007 9 studied the synthesis of hydrazones. The study afforded to the hitherto unreported 1-(4-chloro benzylidene) hydrazinophthalazine, 1- nitrobenzylidene hydrazine phthalazine. , 3-(4-Chlorophenyl) S-Triazolo (3,4-a) phthalazine. These structures were confirmed by spectroscopic techniques IR, UV, H-NMR, EIMS, FD & HRMS. anti hypertensive activity were been evaluated. 4.Koussi and Abdel rahman. , 2006 10 illustrated certain novel Schiff bases of 4- methyl-1,2,4 triazole -3-mercaptoacetic acid hydrazide were synthesized and their chemical identities were elucidated by simple analyses. IR, H-NMR,13- C-NMR and mass spectral data. The percentage of the geometrical isomers was elucidated using the 1-H NMR. The synthesized compounds were selected for screening at the tuberculosis antimicrobial acquisition and co-ordination facility against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV strain in which they showed moderate activity at a concentration of 625 mg/mL. . Jiang et. al. , 2003 11 studied the series of chemically modified aryl- aldehyde Schiff bases has been synthesized and tested for their antioxidant activity and radiation protection. It was observed that disulfide containing aryl aldehyde schiff base exhibited potent free radical scavenging, antioxidation and radioprotective activities. 6. Pandeya et. al. ,1999 12 synthesized antibacterial, antifungal and anti human immunodeficiency virus activities of Schiff and Mannich bases derived from isatin derivatives and N (4-(4 chlorophenyl) thiazolyl thiosemi carbazide.Investigation of antimicrobial activity of compounds was done by agar dilution method. 7. Jayasekar et. al. , 1997 13 synthesized the Schiff bases of mesalazine and studied the anti inflammatory activity. The inhibition shows about 50-60% of the potency of the drug. In the present study, we had investigated certain Schiff base derivatives modified from isoniazid and it has screened for fundamental drug-resistant and Multidrug resistant tuberculosis strain procured from the patients suffering from tuberculosis.
