Computer-aided design, synthesis and screening of potential anti-microbial compounds

The work presented in this thesis falls into three main categories: The design and synthesis of potential anti-tuberculosis drugs targeting a mycobacterial esterase and the enzyme dUTPase; synthesis and anti-microbial SAR studies on a set of carboxamidrazones; synthesis and anti-microbial SAR studies on a set of thiosem icarbazones.
