A series of diazenylbenzenesulfonamides, azo-dye derivatives of sulfanilamide or metanilamide incorporating phenol and amine moieties, were tested for inhibition of the tumor-associated isozymes of carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1), CA IX and XII. These compounds showed moderate-low inhibitory activities against the cytosolic isoforms CA I and II (offtargets) and excellent, low nanomolar inhibitory activity against the transmembrane CA IX and XII (KIs in the range of 3.5-63 nM against CA IX and 5.0-69.4 nM against CA XII, respectively). The selectivity ratio for inhibiting the tumor-associated CA IX over the offtarget CA II was in the range of 15-104 for these diazenylbenzenesulfonamides, making them among the most isoform-selective inhibitors targeting tumor-associated CAs (over the ubiquitous CA II). Since CA IX/XII were recently shown to be both therapeutic and diagnostic targets for hypoxic solid tumors overexpressing these proteins, such compounds held promise for the management of hypoxic tumors, which are largely non-responsible to classical chemo- and radio-therapy.

A series of diazenylbenzenesulfonamides obtained from sulfanilamide or metanilamide by diazotization followed by coupling with phenols or amines, was tested for the inhibition of the β-carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) encoded by the genes Rv1284 and
