Novel synthesized SLC-0111 thiazole and thiadiazole analogues: Determination of their carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activity and molecular modeling studies

In the presented work, we report the design and synthesis of novel SLC-0111 thiazole and thiadiazole analogues (11a–d, 12a–d, 16a–c and 17a–d). A bioisosteric replacement approach was adopted to replace the 4-fluorophenyl tail of SLC-0111 with thiazole and thiadiazole ones, which were thereafter extended with lipophilic un/substituted phenyl moieties. All the newly synthesized SLC-0111 analogues were evaluated in vitro for their inhibitory...
