A series of secondary amine-substituted isoindoline-1,3-dione-4-aminoquinolines were prepared via microwave heating and assayed for their anti-mycobacterial activities. The compound with a butyl chain as a spacer between the two pharmacophores and piperidine as the secondary amine component on the isoindoline ring was the most potent and non-cytotoxic among the synthesized compounds, exhibiting a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC 99 ) of 6.25 μg mL -1 against Mycobacterium tuberculosis .
