Abstract

Substituted bis (fur-2-yl), bis (fur-3-yl) and bis (thien-2-yl) maleimides with potential antidiabetic properties are described. Their synthesis involves, as a key step, a Suzuki cross- coupling between various boron derivatives and the diiodomaleimides. Therefore, a wide range of substituted symmetric and non-symmetric maleimide derivatives can be prepared.
