Synthesis and carbonic anhydrase I, II, VII, and IX inhibition studies with a series of benzo[d]thiazole-5- and 6-sulfonamides

A series of benzo[d]thiazole-5- and 6-sulfonamides has been synthesized and investigated for the inhibition of several human (h) carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms, using ethoxzolamide (EZA) as lead molecule. 2-Amino-substituted, 2-acylamino- and halogenated (bromo-and iodo-derivatives at the heterocyclic ring) compounds led to several interesting inhibitors against the cytosolic hCA I, II and VII, as well as the transmembrane,...
