Abstract
The synthesis of new enantiopure N-acyl compounds derived from (-)-fenchone has been performed. The evaluation of their in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv showed for most of them moderate activity. The structures bearing sulfonamide functionality have comparable activity to ethambutol and possess low cytotoxicity.
