RESUMEN
A novel series of imidazothiadiazole-linked benzenesulfonamide derivatives (5a-t) was synthesized and subjected for screening against the four physiologically and pharmacologically relevant human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms: hCA I, II, VA, and IX. The compounds selectively inhibited hCA I and II over hCA VA and IX. Furthermore, among the two cytosolic isoforms, hCA II was more effectively inhibited as compared with hCA I. The most active compounds were 5o with K i = 0.246 µM and 5p with K i = 0.376 µM against hCA II, whereas compound 5f showed good inhibition against both hCA I and II with K i = 0.493 and 0.4 µM, respectively. This class of underexplored sulfonamides may be used to design isoform-selective CA inhibitors targeting enzymes of medicinal chemistry interest.

A new series of benzenesulphonamide linked-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids (6a-s) has been synthesized and tested for their carbonic anhydrase inhibition against human (h) carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoforms hCA I, II, IX, and XIII. Fluorescence properties of some of the synthesized molecules were studied. Most of the molecules exhibited significant inhibitory power, comparable or better than the standard drug acetazolamide (AAZ) on hCA XIII. Out of 19 tested molecules, compound 6e (75.8 nM) was 3 times more potent than AAZ (250.0 nM) against hCA I, whereas compound 6e (15.4 nM), 6g (16.2 nM), 6h (16.4 nM) and 6i (17.0 nM) were found to be more potent than AAZ (17.0 nM) against isoform hCA XIII. It is anticipated that these compounds could be taken as the potential leads for the development of selective hCA XIII isoform inhibitors with improved potency.
