Harnessing coumarin-thio(seleno)cyanate conjugates: potent In vivo antiproliferative agents targeting carbonic anhydrases
We synthesised coumarin-based derivatives bearing thio- and selenocyanates to selectively inhibit tumour-associated carbonic anhydrases (CAs) IX and XII and to exert antiproliferative effects on tumour cells. Structural variations included chalcogen atom type (S, Se), substitutions at C-3/C-4, and t...
