Abstract
A new series of taurultambenzenesulfonamides 1-17 were prepared and considered for their inhibitory activity in vitro against the Carbonic Anhydrases from Vibrio cholerae (VchCA-α, VchCA-β and VchCA-γ) and Burkholderia pseudomallei (BpsCA-β and BpsCA-γ). Among the compounds tested, derivatives 4, 5, 7, 10, 12, and 16 resulted in highly effective VchCAα inhibitors (KI values spanning within the 6.1-9.6 nM range) and endowed with excellent Selectivity Indexes (SIs; KI VchCA-α/KI hCA II) all comprised between 0.04 and 0.09. Potent in vitro inhibitors for the BpsCA-γ were also identified (KIs of 18.9-19.5 nM). The results here reported may represent the blueprint for the future development of a new generation of CA-based antibiotics integrated with free of resistance mechanisms of action adopted from known drugs.

Abstract
In this study, a group of 4-substituted benzoyltaurinamide derivatives were designed, synthesized, and investigated for their anticancer activity against three cancer cell lines and one nontumorigenic cell line by MTT assay. Among the final compounds, methoxyphenyl derivatives 14, 15, 16 were found to be effective against all the tested cancerous cell lines with promising selectivity. The most active compounds were further evaluated to determine the molecular mechanism of their anticancer activity by using western blot assay and the Annexin V-FITC/PI test. Compound 14 (in SH-SY5Y and MDA-MB-231 cell lines) and 15 (in SH-SY5Y cell line) were found to induce intrinsic apoptotic pathway by upregulating BAX, caspase-3, and caspase-9, while downregulating Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL expression levels. According to mechanistic studies, compounds displayed their anticancer activity via three different mechanisms: a. caspase-dependent, b. caspase-independent, and c. caspase-dependent pathway that excluded caspase-9 activation. As a result, this study provides interesting data which can be used to design new taurine-based anticancer derivatives.

Abstract
Phthalimide derivatives have been presenting several promising biological activities in the literature,
such as anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antitumor, antimicrobial and anticonvulsant. The most well-known and
studied phthalimide derivative (isoindoline-1,3-dione) is thalidomide: this compound initially presented
important sedative effects, but it is now known that thalidomide has effectiveness against a wide variety of
diseases, including inflammation and cancer. This review approaches some of the recent and efficient chemical
synthesis pathways to obtain phthalimide analogues and also presents a summary of the main biological
activities of these derivatives found in the literature. Therefore, this review describes the chemical and
therapeutic aspects of phthalimide derivatives.

Abstract
There are several limited approaches to treat epilepsy in hospitals, for example, using medicines, surgery, electrical stimulation and dietary interventions. Despite the availability of all these new and old approaches, seizure is particularly difficult to manage. The quest for new antiepileptic molecules with more specificity and less CNS toxicity continues for medicinal chemists until a new and ideal drug arrives. This review covers new antiseizure molecules of different chemical classes, the exact mode of action of which is still unidentified. Newer agents include sulfonamides, thiadiazoles, semi- and thiosemicarbazones, pyrrolidine-2,5-diones, imidazoles, benzothiazoles and amino acid deriva tives. These new chemical entities can be useful for the design and development of forthcoming antiseizure agents.

Abstract
In order to determine the impact of different substituents and their positions on intermolecular interactions and ultimately on the crystal packing, unsubstituted N-phenyl-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide, C16H14N2O4S, (I), and the N-(4-nitrophenyl)-, C16H13N3O6S, (II), N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-, C16H16N3O6S, (III), and N-(2-ethylphenyl)-, as the monohydrate, C18H18N2O4S·H2O, (IV), derivatives have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Sulfonamides (I) and (II) have triclinic crystal systems, while (III) and (IV) are monoclinic. Although the molecules differ from each other only with respect to small substituents and their positions, they crystallized in different space groups as a result of differing intra- and intermolecular hydrogen-bond interactions. The structures of (I), (II) and (III) are stabilized by intermolecular N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, while that of (IV) is stabilized by intermolecular O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds. All four structures are of interest with respect to their biological activities and have been studied as part of a program to develop anticonvulsant drugs for the treatment of epilepsy.

Abstract
The ortho-, para- and meta-chloro-substituted N-chlorophenyl-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide derivatives, C16H13ClN2O4S, have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. N-(2-Chlorophenyl)-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide, (I), has orthorhombic (P2(1)2(1)2(1)) symmetry, N-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide, (II), has triclinic (P1¯) symmetry and N-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide, (III), has monoclinic (P2(1)/c) symmetry. The molecules of (I)-(III) are regioisomers which have crystallized in different space groups as a result of the differing intra- and intermolecular hydrogen-bond interactions which are present in each structure. Compounds (I) and (II) are stabilized by N-H···O and C-H···O hydrogen bonds, while (III) is stabilized by N-H···O, C-H···O and C-H···Cl hydrogen-bond interactions. The structure of (II) also displays π-π stacking interactions between the isoindole and benzene rings. All three structures are of interest with respect to their biological activities and have been studied as part of a programme to develop anticonvulsant drugs for the treatment of epilepsy.

Abstract
Amino acids are well known to be an important class of compounds for the maintenance of body homeostasis and their deficit, even for the polar neuroactive aminoacids, can be controlled by supplementation. However, for the amino acid taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) this is not true. Due its special physicochemical properties, taurine is unable to cross the blood-brain barrier. In addition of injured taurine transport systems under pathological conditions, CNS supplementation of taurine is almost null. Taurine is a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory semi-essential amino acid extensively involved in neurological activities, acting as neurotrophic factor, binding to GABA A/glycine receptors and blocking the excitotoxicity glutamate-induced pathway leading to be a neuroprotective effect and neuromodulation. Taurine deficits have been implicated in several CNS diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, epilepsy and in the damage of retinal neurons. This review describes the CNS physiological functions of taurine and the development of new derivatives based on its structure useful in CNS disease treatment.
