Series of 3-benzylsulfanyl derivatives of 1,2,4-triazole and 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole were synthesized by alkylation of starting triazole-3-thiol with appropriately substituted benzyl halide. All members of the set were evaluated for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. avium, and two strains
