Abstract

A series of new thienyl-substituted pyrazoline benzenesulfonamides were synthesized and their carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitory activities were tested on the human (h) isoforms hCA I and hCA II. The inhibition constant (K-i) of these sulfonamides were in the range of 232.16-637.70nM toward the slow cytosolic isozyme hCA I, and in the range of 342.07-455.80nM toward hCA II. Many of these compounds showed comparable inhibition with the reference sulfonamide acetazolamide, a clinically used drug. As the sulfonamide CA inhibitors (CAIs) show many therapeutic uses, these derivatives represent interesting examples of a novel class of such derivatives.
