Abstract:
:In the course of further chemical modification of the novel antidiabetic pioglitazone (AD-4833, U-72,107), a series of 5-[4-(2- or 4-azolylalkoxy)benzyl- or -benzylidene]-2,4-thiazolidinediones was prepared and evaluated for hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic activities in insulin-resistant, genetically obese, and diabetic KKA(y) mice. Replacement of the 2-pyridyl moiety of pioglitazone by a 2- or 4-oxazolyl or a 2- or 4-thiazolyl moiety greatly enhanced in vivo potency. The corresponding 5-benzylidene-type compounds, in which a methine was used as a linker between the benzene ring and the thiazolidinedione ring, also had potent biological activity. Among the compounds synthesized, 5-[4-[2-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)ethoxy]benzyl]-2,4- thiazolidinedione (18) exhibited the most potent activity, more than 100 times that of pioglitazone. The synthesis and structure-activity relationships for this novel series of derivatives are detailed.
