Abstract: N-(3,5-Difluoro-4-hydroxyphenyl)benzenesulfonamide (4) and its derivatives 5-7 were prepared as putative bioisosteres of the previously reported aldose reductase inhibitors, which are the N-benzenesulfonylglycine derivatives I-IV. The in vitro aldose reductase inhibitory activity of the prepared compounds is higher than that of the respective glycine derivatives. Furthermore, the parent compound 4 reveals high antioxidant potential. Additionally, the intestine permeability of 4 is determined, and there is initial evidence that there is an operating influx mechanism. Overall, the data indicate that the presented chemotype could serve as a core structure for the design of putative pharmacotherapeutic agents, aiming to the long-term complications of diabetes mellitus.
