The spectrum of the adduct of hydroxyurea with Co (II)-hCA II is similar to the spectra of tetrahedral adducts (such as those with sulfamide, acetazolamide or cyanamide), proving a direct interaction of the inhibitor molecule with the metal center of the enzyme, whose geometry remains tetrahedral.

A series of N-cyanosulfonamides has been prepared by reaction of alkyl-, arylalkyl- and arylsulfonyl halides or sulfonic acid anhydrides with cyanamide, or by reaction of cyanogen bromide with sulfamide/sulfamic acid.
