Popis: Development of novel, safe and effective drug candidates combating the emerging drug resistance has remained a major focus in the mainstream of anti-tuberculosis research. Here, we inspired to design and synthesize series of new pyridin-4-yl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl-thio-ethylidene-hydrazinecarbothioamide derivatives as potential anti-tubercular agents. The anti-tubercular bioactive assay demonstrated that the synthesized compounds exhibit potent anti-tubercular activity (MIC = 3.9–7.81 μg/mL) in comparison with reference drugs Rifampicin and Isoniazid.We employed pharmacophore probing approach for the identification of CYP51 as a possible drug target for the synthesized compounds. To understand the preferable binding mode, the synthesized molecules were docked onto the active site of Sterol 14 α-demethylases (CYP51) target. From the binding free energy of the docking results it was revealed that the compounds were effective CYP51 inhibitors and acts as antitubercular agent.
