The quantum parameters of aromatic sulfonylamides are determined to describe their interaction with carbonic anhydrase at the theory level M06/6-311 ++G**(SMD). The molecular electrostatic potential on the nitrogen atom in sulfamides and Hirschfeld charge on this atom have been found to appear to be adequate and determinative descriptors of carbonic anhydrase inhibition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
