Abstract

A review with 22 refs. The 5-benzylthiazolidine-2,4-dione moiety of insulin sensitizing antidiabetic agents can be replaced by a range of ?-heteroatom functionalized ?-phenylpropanoic acids. ?-Oxy-carboxylic acids show potent antidiabetic activity and one compd., the ?-ethoxyacid (SB 213068), is one of the most potent antihyperglycemic agents yet reported.
