Synthesis, Structural Analysis and Pharmacological Screening of Chlorinated Sulfonamides

Abstract

In present work, a facile and environmentally benign series of chlorinated sulfonamides was synthesized and screened against different enzymes. These were geared up by the coupling of 4-chlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride (1) with different substituted aromatic amines (2a-l) under dynamic pH control in aqueous media to form various chlorinated sulfonamides (3a-l). The synthesized chlorinated sulfonamides were spectrally characterized like ¹H NMR, IR and EI-MS. The bioactivity of all the synthesized compounds were evaluated against urease, butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes and found to be having talented activity against butyrylcholinesterase enzyme.
