Two lead 1,3-oxazole-based carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs) earlier identified as selective, picomolar inhibitors of hCA II (a cytosolic target for treatment of glaucoma) have been investigated further. Firstly, they were found to be conveniently synt

Abstract A series of potent inhibitors of human carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoforms I and II has been prepared via a direct, chemoselective sulfochlorination of a range of 1,3-oxazolyl benzenes and thiophenes, followed by primary sulfonamide synthesis. The latter functionality is a known zinc-binding group (ZBG) responsible for anchoring the inhibitors to the CA's zinc metal ion. The compound's periphery as well as the overall scaffold geometry was designed to enable optimal interactions with the two distinct sides of the enzyme's active site, one of which is lined with hydrophobic residues and while the other is predominantly hydrophilic. As a result, several compounds inhibiting the therapeutically important cytosolic CA I and CA II in picomolar range have been identified. These compounds are one of the most potent CA inhibitors identified to-date. Not only the remarkable (>10 000-fold), cytosolic CA I and CA II selectivity vs. the membrane-bound CA IX and CA XII isoforms, but also the pronounced CA II/I selectivity observed in some cases, allow considering this series as a set of isoform-selective chemical biology tools and promising starting points for drug candidate development.

As a part of our investigation into the development of orally bioavailable β3 adrenergic receptor agonists, we have identified a series of substituted oxazole derivatives that are potent β3 agonists with excellent selectivity against other β receptors. Several of these compounds showed excellent oral bioavailability in dogs. One example, cyclopentylethyloxazole 5f is a potent β3 agonist (EC50 = 14 nM, 84% activation) with 340-fold and 160-fold selectivity over β1 and β2 receptors, respectively, and has 38% oral bioavailability in dogs.
