Deskripsi

After hydrofluorination of ynesulphonamides in superacid or in the presence of hydrofluoric acid/base reagents, a series of α-fluoroenamides has been synthesised and tested for the inhibition of carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms. This study reveals a new, highly selective family of cancer-related transmembrane human (h) CA IX/XII inhibitors. These original fluorinated ureido isosters do not inhibit the widespread cytosolic isoforms hCA I and II and selectively inhibit the transmembrane cancer-related hCA IX and XII, offering interesting new leads for future studies.
