Abstract
In our search for potent inhibitors of the enzyme estrone sulfatase (ES), we have undertaken the synthesis and biochemical evaluation of a range of esters of 4-[(aminosulfonyl)oxy] benzoic acid. The results of the study show that the synthesised compounds possess potent inhibitory activity, indeed the cyclooctyl derivative was found to be more potent than 667-COUMATE, which is currently undergoing clinical trials.
