    We report herein the design and synthesis of a series of novel nitrobenzamide derivatives. Results reveal that many of them display considerable in vitro antitubercular activity. Four N-benzyl or N-(pyridine-2-yl)methyl 3,5-dinitrobenzamides A6, A11, C1 and C4 have not only the same excellent MIC values of <0.016 μg/mL against both drug-sensitive MTB strain H37Rv and two drug-resistant clinical isolates as PBTZ169 and the lead 1, but also acceptable safety indices (SI > 1500), opening a new direction for further development.
