“…There are many classes of compounds for CA inhibitors in the literature: (i) sulfonamides and their isosteres (such as sulfamates, sulfamides and similar derivatives) and metal complexing anions. , and (iv) the coumarins and thiocoumarins 37 , which have an inhibition mechanism not dependent of Zn(II), and bind (in hydrolyzed form) in the same active site region as the activators, occluding the entrance to the active site while the other three CAI groups bind to Zinc(II) ion or Zinc coordinated water molecule/hydroxide ion and the recently reported class of effective CAIs, (v) urea/ thiourea compounds 38,39 , (vi) b-lactames 40 . Sulfonamides have important inhibitory effect on the CA enzyme due to their ability to gain ionic structure easily and these compounds are very important in medicinal chemistry and they constitute an important class of drugs used extensively as pharmaceutical and agricultural agents 41 .…”
