Abstract

Here we describe the inhibitory activity of IQG607, pentacyano(isoniazid) ferrate(II), on isoniazid-sensitive and isoniazid-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, its oral toxicity, and efforts to adapt IQG607 synthesis to large chemical reactors. IQG607 represents a promising chemotherapeutic agent aiming at the inhibition of a validated and druggable molecular target.
