Abstract
Sulfonate derivatives are an essential class of compounds with diverse pharmacological applications. This study presents the synthesis and detailed characterization of six novel Schiff base sulfonate derivatives (L1-L6) through spectroscopic techniques (FTIR and NMR). Their inhibitory potential was evaluated against human carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes (hCA I and hCA II) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE), which are crucial therapeutic targets for diseases such as glaucoma, epilepsy, and Alzheimer's disease. The Kivalues for the compounds concerning AChE, hCA I, and hCA II enzymes were in the ranges of, 106.10 ± 14.73-422.80 ± 17.64 nM (THA: 159.61± 8.41 nM), 116.90 ± 24.40-268.00 ± 35.84 nM (AAZ: 439.17 ± 9.30 nM), and 177.00 ± 35.03-435.20 ± 75.98 nM (AAZ: 98.28 ± 1.69 nM), respectively. Molecular docking analyses revealed key interactions within the active sites of the enzymes, including hydrogen bonding with critical residues and π-π stacking interactions. Notably,L3demonstrated superior inhibition against hCA I (Ki: 116.90 ± 24.40 nM) and AChE (Ki: 106.10 ± 14.73 nM), positioning it as a promising lead compound. This comprehensive investigation contributes to the development of isoform-specific inhibitors for therapeutic use and provides valuable insights into their binding mechanisms.
