Abstract

We have examined six boron compounds for their potential antituberculosis activities. Addition of 2-formylphenyl pinacol boronate ester to tetraamine derivatives gave three new aminoboron compounds, which were elementally pure when obtained, and one example was characterized by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study. Heterocyclic aminoboron compounds 1-4 showed moderate degrees of antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
