Ferrocene incorporated N,N'-disubstituted thioureas (S1-S6) were synthesized by allowing 4-ferrocenyl-3-methylaniline to react with freshly prepared aliphatic isothiocyanates and were characterized by using different analytical techniques. Based on single

We describe the synthesis of a series of novel 1-aroyl/acyl-3-(3-aminosulfonylphenyl) thioureas (4a–k) acting as human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors. Reaction of alkyl/aryl isothiocyanates with 3-aminobenzenesulfonamide afforded a series of the title compounds incorporating a variety of short as well as highly lipophilic long tails. The newly synthesized sulfonamides were evaluated against 4 physiologically relevant CA isoforms (hCA I, II, IV, and IX). Several compounds showed interesting inhibitory activity. The tumor-associated hCA IX was the most sensitive isoform to inhibition with these compounds, with KIs in the range of 21.5–44.0 nM and selectivity ratios over the major cytosolic isoform hCA II in the range of 3.35–37.3. The sulfonamides incorporating the phenylacetylthioureido and pentadecanoylthioureido moieties were the most hCA IX-selective inhibitors detected in this work, making them of interest for further investigations.

Serine racemase (SRR) is an enzyme that produces D-serine from L-serine. D-Serine acts as an endogenous coagonist of NMDA-type glutamate receptors (NMDARs), which regulate many physiological functions. Over-activation of NMDARs induces excitotoxicity, which is observed in many neurodegenerative disorders and epilepsy states. In our previous works on the generation of SRR gene knockout (Srr-KO) mice and its protective effects against NMDA- and Aβ peptide-induced neurodegeneration, we hypothesized that the regulation of NMDARs’ over-activation by inhibition of SRR activity is one such therapeutic strategy to combat these disease states. In the previous study, we performed in silico screening to identify four compounds with inhibitory activities against recombinant SRR. Here, we synthesized 21 derivatives of candidate 1, one of four hit compounds, and performed screening by in vitro evaluations. The derivative 13J showed a significantly lower IC50 value in vitro, and suppressed neuronal over-activation in vivo.
