A series of novel 1 H ‐1,2,3‐triazole tethered isatin–moxifloxacin (MXF) hybrids 5a ‐ l with greater lipophilicity compared with the parent MXF were designed, synthesized and screened for their in vitro antimycobacterial activities against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) H 37 Rv and multidrug‐resistant MTB (MDR–MTB) as well as their cytotoxicity on the VERO cell line. All the synthesized hybrids (MIC: 0.025‐0.78 μg/ml) showed considerable activities against MTB H 37 Rv and MDR–MTB, and the most active conjugate 5c (MIC: 0.025 and 0.06 μg/ml) was 2 to >2048 times more potent in vitro than the three references MXF (MIC: 0.10 and 0.12 μg/ml), rifampicin (MIC: 0.39 and 32 μg/ml) and isoniazid (MIC: 0.05 and >128 μg/ml) against the two tested strains. All hybrids (CC 50 : 4‐64 μg/ml) were much more cytotoxic than the parent MXF (CC50: 128 μg/ml), but the most active hybrid 5c (CC 50 : 32 μg/ml) also displayed acceptable cytotoxicity, warranting further investigation.
