Sulfonamides - history
azide dyes found to be antibiotic
split to active sulfanilamide and toxic metabolite (para-di and tri amines)
Sulfonamides - static or cidal
static (competitive inhibitors)
Sulfonamides - target/MOA
competitive inhibitor of folate synthetase
may also be incorporated
structural analog of PABA (substrate)
Sulfonamides - selectivity
humans do not make folate

must be free amine or amine with an easily removed group
mimics PABA
Sulfonamides - SAR - N1
can only be monosubstituted to act as Bronsted acid
- pKa of 6.0-7.4
- ionized form mimics PABA
- unionized penetrates membranes
R group is an aromatic heterocycle

slower abs/excretion
more N acetylation
leads to more crystallization

penetrates into CSF (meningitis)
Cotrimoxazole - elimination
renally excreted
adjust dosage for dysfunction
Cotrimoxazole - uses
primary uses
- skin and soft-tissue
