Abstract: Sulfonamides, with the general formula R-SO2NR1R2, have attracted great attention
since the early discovery of sulfonamide-containing antibacterial drugs. The combinations
of certain sulfonamides and other drug molecules to form sulfonamide hybrids
are being used to develop novel formulations with greater effectiveness and in a huge
range of therapeutic applications such as antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antitubercular,
antiviral, antidiabetic, antiproliferative, carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, antimalarial,
anticancer and other medicinal agents. Part C of this review presents recent advances
in designing and developing multicomponent sulfonamide hybrids containing more
than one biologically active heterocycle, such as coumarin, indole, pyridine, pyrimidine,
pyrazole, triazole, oxazole, oxadiazole, triazine, quinazoline, and thiadiazol. This review
aims to highlight the status of the hybridization technique in synthesizing biological and
computational studies of novel sulfonamide hybrids that were designed and presented between
2016 and 2020.
