Various 1,2,4 trisubstituted imidazolin-5-one derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) and carbonic anhydrase (CA) enzymes aiming to explore potential dual inhibitors. Results revealed that compounds 3c, 3g, 3h, 4a, 6c and 6d were the most effective derivatives against p38αMAPK (IC50 = 0.14, 0.14, 0.056, 0.14, 0.13 and 0.14 μM, respectively) compared to sorafenib (IC50 = 1.58 μM) as standard drug. On the other hand, compound 4a revealed the best inhibitory activity against all the tested carbonic anhydrase isoforms CA I, II, IV and IX with Ki values of 95.0, 0.83, 6.90 and 12.4 nM, respectively compared to acetazolamide with Ki values 250, 12.1, 74 and 12.8 nM, respectively. Therefore, compound 4a can be considered as a potent dual p38αMAPK/CA inhibitor.

Abstract
Various 1,2,4 trisubstituted imidazolin-5-one derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) and carbonic anhydrase (CA) enzymes aiming to explore potential dual inhibitors. Results revealed that compounds 3c, 3g, 3h, 4a, 6c and 6d were the most effective derivatives against p38αMAPK (IC50 = 0.14, 0.14, 0.056, 0.14, 0.13 and 0.14 μM, respectively) compared to sorafenib (IC50 = 1.58 μM) as standard drug. On the other hand, compound 4a revealed the best inhibitory activity against all the tested carbonic anhydrase isoforms CA I, II, IV and IX with Ki values of 95.0, 0.83, 6.90 and 12.4 nM, respectively compared to acetazolamide with Ki values 250, 12.1, 74 and 12.8 nM, respectively. Therefore, compound 4a can be considered as a potent dual p38αMAPK/CA inhibitor.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
