Due to several obstacles in treating tuberculosis (TB), the search for new therapeutic alternatives remains a global priority. The nitrogenous heterocyclic compounds are promising in searching for new anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis molecules, and our previous results highlight the potential of tetrahydropyridines. After exploring the antimycobacterial potential and putative mechanism of action of a tetrahydropyridine derivative (NUNL02), we seek to measure the oxidative stress caused by NUNL02 inside the extracellular replicating M.

Some studies have reported evidence about tetrahydropyridines as a putative efflux pump inhibitor, including in mycobacteria, being a promising strategy against M. tuberculosis.

This three-component one-pot method provided 23 examples with high chemo- and regioselectivity at yields up to 96%.
