Abstract

Thiocarlide (THC; N,N′‐bis[p‐(isoamyloxy)phenyl]‐thiourea; also known as Isoxyl®) has been used in the past as an anti‐tuberculosis agent. In an effort to improve the therapeutic value of THC, several N‐glycosyl‐N′‐[p‐(isoamyloxy)phenyl]‐thiourea derivatives were synthesized by coupling an aniline derivative and glycosyl isothiocyanates. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of the new products against M. tuberculosis were determined.
