Bioorg Med Chem. 2007 Dec 15;15(24):7789-94. doi: 10.1016/j.bmc.2007.08.045. Epub 2007 Aug 29.

Abstract

A series of N- and C-alkylated amino alcohols and of their protected galactopyranosyl derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for antitubercular activity. Five of these compounds displayed good activity, with a MIC below 12.5mug/mL. The presence of the carbohydrate slightly affected the antibacterial activity.
