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. ...
