Abstract
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 activity towards a panel of the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms (hCA I, II, IX and XII), using a stopped-flow CO2 hydrase assay. All the examined isoforms were inhibited by the primary sulfonamide derivatives (11a-d and 12a-d) in variable degrees with the following KI ranges: 162.6-7136 nM for hCA I, 9.0-833.6 nM for hCA II, 7.9-153.0 nM for hCA IX, and 9.4-94.0 nM for hCA XII. In particular, compounds 12b and 12d displayed 5.5-fold more potent inhibitory activity (KIs = 8.3 and 7.9 nM, respectively) than SLC-0111 (KI = 45 nM) towards hCA IX. Molecular docking study was carried out for 12d within the hCA IX (PDB 3IAI) active site, to justify its inhibitory activity.
