| Abstract | The antitubercular activity of selected flavonoids and their structure–activity relationships were studied against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H 37 Rv strain radiometrically by BACTEC 460 assay. Present study led to the identification of five flavonoids, viz., luteolin, baicalein, quercetin, myricetin and hispidulin with MIC 25–100 μg ml−1, as new antitubercular templates. Rest flavonoids were found inactive against M. tuberculosis at a concentration of 100 μg ml−1. A possible structure–activity relationship (SAR) was also drawn to determine the specific structural requirements of flavonoids toward antitubercular activity. The hydroxyl substitution at position 5 and 7 provides no activity, whereas the hydroxyl substitutions at 5, 6, 7 (trihydroxy) or 3′, 4′ (dihydroxy) are of particular importance for antitubercular activity of a flavonoid. The O-methylation or glycosylation at any of di- or tri-hydroxyl substitutions inactivates the antitubercular potential of the flavonoids. We have also predicted the activity of studied flavonoids through QSAR model. A multiple linear regression QSAR mathematical model was developed for activity prediction that successfully and accurately (noting the corresponding experimental activities) predicted the antituberculosis activities of studied flavonoid compounds that had the basic pharmacophore, namely luteolin, baicalein, quercetin, myricetin, and hispidulin, with experimental and predicted n log MIC (μg ml−1) of 3.2189 & 2.583, 3.912 & 2.433, 3.912 & 2.433, 3.912 & 3.529, and 4.6052 & 2.703, respectively. The structure–activity relationship denoted by the QSAR model yielded a very high activity-descriptor relationship accuracy of 87 % referred by regression coefficient (r 2 = 0.870533) and a high activity prediction accuracy of 81 % (rCV2 = 0.81423). These compounds may represent novel leads toward the development of pharmacologically acceptable antitubercular agent/agents. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
