Combination of the Suzuki cross-coupling and nucleophilic aromatic substitution of hydrogen (SNH) reactions proved to be a convenient method for the synthesis of 5-styryl-4-(hetero)aryl substituted pyrimidines from commercially available 5-bromopyrimidine. All intermediate 5-bromo-4-(hetero)aryl substituted pyrimidines and also the targeted 5-styryl-4-(hetero)arylpyrimidines were found to be active in micromolar concentrations in vitro against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv, avium, terrae, and multi-drug-resistant strain isolated from tuberculosis patients in Ural region (Russia). It has been found that some of these compounds possess a low toxicity and have a bacteriostatic effect, comparable and even higher with that of first-line antituberculosis drugs.
