A series of novel aryl and thiophenyl tethered dihydro-6H-quinolin-5-ones have been synthesized in very good yields through CeCl3 center dot 7H(2)O-NaI catalyzed one-pot condensation of beta-enaminones derived from the respective methyl ketones; 1,3-cyclohexanedione & 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione and ammonium acetate refluxing in 2-propanol. Dihydro-6H-quinolin-5-ones 3a-f was further derivatized to the respective hydroxymethyl analogs using proline as an organocatalyst in aqueous media. Among the all 18 compounds screened for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv (MTB), dihydro-6H-quinolin-5-ones 4e and 4f were found to be most active with MIC 3.13 mu g/mL.
