We report the synthesis and biological evaluation of novel series of benzenesulfonamides incorporating un/substituted ethyl quinoline-3-carboxylate moieties. The newly synthesised compounds were in vitro evaluated as inhibitors of the cytosolic human (h) isoforms hCA I and II. Both isoforms hCA I and II were inhibited by the quinolines reported here in variable degrees: hCA I was inhibited with KIs in the range of 0.966¨C9.091£¿¦ÌM, whereas hCA II in the range of 0.083¨C3.594£¿¦ÌM. The primary 7-chloro-6-flouro substituted sulphfonamide derivative 6e (KI = 0.083£¿¦ÌM) proved to be the most active quinoline in inhibiting hCA II, whereas, its secondary sulfonamide analog failed to inhibit the hCA II up to 10£¿¦ÌM, confirming the crucial role of the primary sulphfonamide group, as a zinc-binding group for CA inhibitory activity %U https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14756366.2019.1652282
