In this study, thiazole derivatives containing sulphonamide, amide, and phenyl amino groups were synthesized to protect the free amino groups of 5-methyl-4-phenyl-2-aminothiazole and 4-phenyl-2-aminothiazole. Halogenated reactions of N-protected thiazole derivatives have been investigated. LCMS, FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopy techniques were used to elucidate the structures of the synthesized compounds. Inhibition effects of the N-protected thiazole derivatives against human carbonic anhydrase I, II (hCA I, hCA II), and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were investigated. The best results among the synthesized N-protected thiazole derivatives showed Ki values in the range of 46.85–587.53 nM against hCA I, 35.01–578.06 nM against hCA II, and in the range of 19.58–226.18 nM against AChE. Furthermore, in silico studies with the target enzyme of the thiazole derivatives (9 and 11), which showed the best results experimentally, have examined the binding interactions of the related compounds at the enzyme active site.
