Abstract

A series of novel O-spiroketal C-arylglucosides have been prepared and evaluated in cell-based functional assays for activity against human sodium-dependent glucose co-transporters 1 and 2 (SGLT1 and 2). The core spiro[isobenzofuran-1,2'-pyran] structure proved to be an effective scaffold for diversification and a number of compounds with single digit nanomolar potency and high selectivity have been synthesized. Compound 5a promoted glucosuria when administered in vivo in rats and produced a significant blood glucose reduction effect.
