Abstract
Nowadays, the scientific community has focused on dealing with different kinds of diseases by exploring the chemistry of various heterocycles as novel drugs. In this connection, medicinal chemists identified carbonic anhydrases (CA) as one of the biologically active targets for curing various diseases. The widespread distribution of these enzymes and the high degree of homology shared by the different isoforms offer substantial challenges to discovering potential drugs. Medicinal and synthetic organic chemists have been continuously involved in developing CA inhibitors. This review explored the chemistry of different heterocycles as CA inhibitors using the last 11 years of published research work. It provides a pathway for young researchers to further explore the chemistry of a variety of synthetic as well as natural heterocycles as CA inhibitors.

Abstract
The JFH coupling constants in fluorinated amino alcohols were investigated through experimental and theoretical approaches. The experimental JFH couplings were only reproduced theoretically when explicit solvation through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations was conducted in DMSO as the solvent. The combination of MD conformation sampling and DFT NMR spin-spin coupling calculations for these compounds reveals the simultaneous presence of through-space (TS) and hydrogen bond (H-bond) assisted JFH coupling between fluorine and hydrogen of the NH group. Furthermore, MD simulations indicate that the hydrogen in the amino group participates in both an intermolecular bifurcated H-bond with DMSO and in transmitting the observed JFH coupling. The contribution of TS to the JFH coupling is due to the spatial proximity of the fluorine and the NH group, aided by a combination of the non-bonding transmission pathway and the hydrogen bonding pathway. The experimental JFH coupling observed for the molecules studied should be represented as 4TS/1hJFH coupling.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cancer affects an increasing number of patients each year with an unacceptable death toll worldwide. A new therapeutic approach to combat tumors consists in targeting human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms IX and XII, which are tumor-associated, overexpressed enzymes in hypoxic tumors, being involved in metabolism, pH regulation, ferroptosis and overall tumor progression. AREAS COVERED Small molecule hCA IX/XII and antibody drug conjugate inhibitors targeting the two enzymes and their applications in the management of cancer are discussed. EXPERT OPINION The available 3D crystal structures of hCA IX, XII as well as the off target isoforms hCA I and II, afforded structure-based drug design opportunities, which led to the development of various isoform-selective small molecule inhibitors belonging to diverse classes (sulfonamides, sulfamates, benzoxaboroles, selenols, coumarins, sulfocoumarins and isocoumarins). Many patents focused on small inhibitors containing sulfonamide/ sulfamate/sulfamide derivatives as well as hybrids incorporating sulfonamides and different antitumor chemotypes, such as cytotoxic drugs, kinase/telomerase inhibitors, P-gp and thioredoxin inhibitors. The most investigated candidate belonging to the class is the sulfonamide SLC-0111, in Phase Ib/II clinical trials for the management of advanced, metastatic solid tumors.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrases IX and CAXII (CAIX/CAXII) are transmembrane zinc metalloproteins that catalyze a very basic but crucial physiological reaction: the conversion of carbon dioxide into bicarbonate with a release of the proton. CA, especially CAIX and CAXII isoforms gained the attention of many researchers interested in anticancer drug design due to pivotal functions of enzymes in the cancer cell metastasis and response to hypoxia, and their expression restricted to malignant cells. This offers an opportunity to develop new targeted therapies with fewer side effects. Continuous efforts led to the discovery of a series of diverse compounds with the most abundant sulphonamide derivatives. Here we review current knowledge considering small molecule and antibody-based targeting of CAIX/CAXII in cancer.
