Abstract
Abstract A series of novel N-(pyrimidin-4-yl)thiazol-2-amine derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated as glucokinase (GK) activators. Ethyl 2-(6-(4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl)-2-methylpyrimidin-4-yl-amino)thiazole-5-carboxylate was found to be a potent dual-acting hypoglycemic agent activating both GK and PPARγ. When given orally to normal mice, the compound demonstrated significant efficacy in decreasing the glucose level after oral glucose loading.
