A series of 1,2,4-oxadiazolidine-3,5-diones was synthesized and evaluated as oral antihyperglycemic agents in the obese insulin resistant db/db and ob/ob mouse - the two models for Type 2 diabetes mellitus. The majority of the prepared methoxy- and ethoxy-linked oxazole 1,2,4-oxadiazolidine-3,5-diones normalized plasma glucose levels at the 100 mg kg-1 oral dose in the db/db diabetic mouse model, and several amongst them reduced the glucose levels at the 20 mg kg-1 oral dose. The most potent compounds in the db/db mouse model were also active in the ob/ob mouse model normalizing the plasma glucose levels at the 20 mg kg-1 oral dose. The trifluoromethoxy analog 32 was the most active compound of the series, reducing significantly the plasma glucose levels at the 5 mg kg-1 oral dose. Oxadiazole-tailed 1,2,4-oxadiazolidine-3,5-diones were also active in both the db/db and ob/ob diabetic mouse models normalizing plasma glucose levels at the 100 mg kg-1 oral dose.
