title: Facile synthesis of active antitubercular, cytotoxic and antibacterial agents: a Michael addition approach.
abstract: Spiro derivatives of oxindole and isoxazole-5-one were synthesized by using Michael addition reaction, highlighting the regioselective approach towards the synthesis of Michael diadduct followed by condensation of Michael diadduct. The spiro compound 4 showed antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv whereas spiro compound 9 possesses pronounced anticancer and antibacterial profile.
