Abstract:
:Bioisosteric substitution was used as a tool to generate several new structural alternatives to the thiazolidine-2,4-dione and tetrazole heterocycles as potential antidiabetic agents. Among the initial leads that emerged from this strategy, a family of acidic azoles, isoxazol-3- and -5-ones and a pyrazol-3-one, showed significant plasma glucose-lowering activity (17-42% reduction) in genetically obese, diabetic db/db mice at a dose of 100 mg/kg/day x4. Structure-activity relationship studies determined that 5-alkyl-4-(arylmethyl)pyrazol-3-ones, which exist in solution as aromatic enol/iminol tautomers, were the most promising new class of potential antidiabetic agent (32-45% reduction at 20 mg/kg/d x4). Included in this work are convenient syntheses for several types of acidic azoles that may find use as new acidic bioisosteres in medicinal chemistry such as the antidiabetic lead 5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazol-3-one (hydroxy tautomer) and aza homologs of the pyrazolones, 1,2,3-triazol-5-ones (hydroxy tautomer) and 1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-one heterocycles. log P and pKa data for 15 potential acidic bioisosteres, all appended to a 2-naphthalenylmethyl residue so as to maintain a similar distance between the acidic hydrogen and arene nucleus, are presented. This new data set allows comparison of a wide variety of potential acid mimetics (pKa 3.78-10.66; log P -0.21 to 2.76) for future drug design.
