We identified a novel 6-benzyl ether benzoxaborole with potent activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The compound had a minimum inhibitory concentration of 2 μM in liquid medium. The compound was also able to prevent growth on solid medium at 0.8 μM and was active against intracellular bacteria (IC50 = 3.6 μM) without cytotoxicity against eukaryotic cells (IC50 >100 μM). We isolated resistant mutants (MIC ≥100 μM), which had mutations in Rv1683, Rv3068c and Rv0047c.
