Design, synthesis and hypoglycemic activity of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-{4-[(5-methyl-2-phenyloxazol-4-yl)methoxy]benzylene(benzyl)}-2-pyrazol-5-one

Based on the SAR (structure activity relationship) of TZDs (thiazolidinediones), 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazoline-5-one was selected as a substitute for TZD. Compounds of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-{4-[(5-methyl-2-phenyloxazol-4-yl)methoxy]benzylene(benzyl)}-2-pyrazol-5-one were designed and synthesized to find some more hypoglycemic active agents and further investigate the SAR of this class of compounds. Butanedione monoxime reacted with (substituted) benzaldehyde via cyclization and chlorination to give 4-(chloromethyl)-5-methyl-2-phenyloxazole derivatives, which condensed with 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde or vanillin, and was followed by the Knoevenagel reaction with 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazol-5-one to give compounds Ia-Ih. Compounds Ia-Ih were hydrogenated with Pd-C to give IIa-IIh, and their hypoglycemic activity was evaluated with a glucose oxidase kit and insulin load test on normal mice. Sixteen new target compounds were synthesized. All the compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR, IR, MS and elemental analysis. The preliminary pharmacological tests show that the compounds have good hypoglycemic activity and can enhance the action of insulin, especially Ib, Id and If. __________ Translated from Chemical Journal of Chinese Universities, 2007, 28(4): 672–677 [译自: 高等学校化学学报]

Cycloaddition-elimination reactions of 4-methyl-5-(substituted)-imino-Δ2-1,2,3,4-thiatriazolines with isocyanates

4-Methyl-5-(substituted)imino-1,2,3,4-thiatriazolines 1 (R² ≠ Me) undergo cycloaddition-elimination reactions with isocyanates to yield 4-methyl-5-(substituted)imino-1,2,4-thiadiazolidine-3-ones 5 via the thermodynamically less stable isomers 4 . The latter have not been isolated, except for 4q which was shown to iso-merize rapidly into 5q with phenylsulfonyl isocyanate. The reactions of 1 are accelerated by using less bulky R² substituents and more electrophilic isocyanates, in accordance with the viewpoint that 1 reacts as a masked 1,3-dipole. The products 4i-n (= 5i-n ), derived from 1b , add isocyanates reversibly to give 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-6aλ⁴-thia-1,3,4,6-tetraazapentalene-2,5-diones 9i-n , which have been isolated and characterized spectroscopically. Such compounds with a hypervalent sulfur atom thus occur as intermediates during the isomerization of 4 to 5 under the influence of isocyanates.
