A series of organometallic acylhydrazones was prepared, incorporating Re(CO)3, Mn(CO)3 and ferrocenyl moieties, which were subsequently reacted with amino-sulfonamides in order to obtain carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors possessing organometallic moieties in their molecules. The new derivatives were investigated as inhibitors of four human (h) CA isoforms with pharmaceutical applications, such as the cytosolic hCA I, II and VII and the mitochondrial hCA VA. An interesting inhibitory profile against these isoforms was obtained, with some of these metal complexes acting as subnanomolar or low nanomolar inhibitors. They were also thoroughly characterised from the chemical point of view, making them of interest for further developments in the field of metal complexes of sulfonamides with CA inhibitory action.

Abstract
A series of organometallic acylhydrazones was prepared, incorporating Re(CO)3, Mn(CO)3 and ferrocenyl moieties, which were subsequently reacted with amino-sulfonamides in order to obtain carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors possessing organometallic moieties in their molecules. The new derivatives were investigated as inhibitors of four human (h) CA isoforms with pharmaceutical applications, such as the cytosolic hCA I, II and VII and the mitochondrial hCA VA. An interesting inhibitory profile against these isoforms was obtained, with some of these metal complexes acting as subnanomolar or low nanomolar inhibitors. They were also thoroughly characterised from the chemical point of view, making them of interest for further developments in the field of metal complexes of sulfonamides with CA inhibitory action.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
