	abstract = {<p>We have developed eco-friendly route for the synthesis of title compounds by using simple compounds like aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, 4-bromothiophenol and NaHCO3. In continuation to this, a series of pyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles were synthesized with excellent yields and assessed for their invitro antitubercular and antimicrobial activity. The results of the antimicrobial study showed potent antimicrobial activity as compared to the standard drugs (Chloramphenicol and Griseofulvin). It was noticed that the presence of electron donating groups significantly increases the antibacterial activity of the newly synthesized compounds. The title compounds further evaluated for antitubercular activity and from the promising results, they were found to possess significant biological activity against M. tuberculosis.</p>},
