In vitro inhibition effects of some new sulfonamide inhibitors on human carbonic anhydrase I and II.

A new series of aromatic and heterocyclic sulfonamides, including six new derivatives, 2-(3-cyclohexene-1-carbamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (CCTS), 4-(3-cyclohexene-1-carbamido) methyl-benzenesulfonamide (CCBS), 2-(9-octadecenoylamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (ODTS), 2-(4,7,10-trioxa-tetradecanoylamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (TDTS), 2-(coumarine-3-carbamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (COTS) and 2-(8-methoxycoumarine-3-carbamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-sulfonamide (MCTS), has been investigated. These sulfonamides were assayed for inhibition of human carbonic anhydrase I (hCA-I) and human carbonic anhydrase II (hCA-II) which were purified by affinity chromatography.
