Herein we report the synthesis of a set of thirty-four primary sulfonamides generated via formal N–H-insertion of metal carbenes into anilinic amino group of sulfanilamide and its meta-substituted analog. Obtained compounds were tested in vitro as inhibitors of four physiologically significant isoforms of the metalloenzyme human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1). Many of the synthesized sulfonamides displayed low nanomolar Ki values against therapeutically relevant hCA II, IX, and XII, whereas they did not potently inhibit hCA I. Provided the promising activity profiles of the substances towards tumor-associated hCA IX and XII isozymes, single-concentration MTT test was performed for the entire set. Disappointingly, most of the discovered hCA inhibitors did not significantly suppress the growth of cancer cells either in normoxia or CoCl2 induced hypoxic conditions. The only two compounds exerting profound antiproliferative effect turned out to be modest hCA inhibitors. Their out of the range activity in cells is likely attributive to the presence of Michael acceptor substructure which can potentially act either through the inhibition of Thioredoxin reductases (TrxRs, EC 1.8.1.9) or nonspecific covalent binding to cell proteins.
Synthesis and carbonic anhydrase I, II, IX and XII inhibition studies of 4-N,N-disubstituted sulfanilamides incorporating 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-oxo-but-1- enyl, phenacylthiourea and imidazol-2(3H)-one/thione moieties

A series of sulfonamides incorporating the sulfanilamide (SA) scaffold were prepared. Reaction of the 4-amino moiety of SA with benzyl chlorides or substituted bromoacetophenones afforded the 4-mono-alkylated derivatives which were then reacted with 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-isobutoxybut-3-en-2-one leading to a series of 4-N,N-disubstituted SAs. The key intermediates were also reacted with ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate leading to thioureas or were cyclized in the presence of potassium cyanate/isothiocyanate to the corresponding imidazol-2(3H)-one/thiones. The new compounds were tested as inhibitors of four carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms, the cytosolic CA I and II, and the transmembrane, tumor-associated CA IX and XII. These sulfonamides were ineffective CA I and II inhibitors but were nanomolar CA IX and XII inhibitors, making them of interest as clinical candidates for antitumor/antimetastasis applications.
