A series of novel 5-(substituted benzylidene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives was designed, and synthesized based on our previous studies. Also their activities were evaluated as competitive inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B). Compounds 6d-6g, 7b, 7c, 7e, 7j, 7k, 7m, 14b and 14e-14f showed potent inhibitory effects against PTP1B, and compound 7e, the most potent among the series, had an IC50 of 4.6 μM. Also a Surflex-Dock docking model of 7e was studied. Compound 7e showed a negative binding energy of -7.35 kcal/mol and a high affinity to PTP1B residues (Gly220, Ala217, Arg221, Asp181, Ser216, Cys215, Phe182, Gln262 and Ile219) in the active sites, indicating that it may stabilize the open form and generate tighter binding to the catalytic sites of PTP1B.

Claisen-Schmidt condensation of 4-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)acetophenone with 2-methoxy-4-[(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)oxy]benzaldehyde gave a THP-protected chalcone ether. Removal of the THP group under mild acidic conditions gave the corresponding chalcone ether, which underwent a water-accelerated Claisen rearrangement under microwave irradiation or heating in a sealed tube in aqueous ethanol to give a good yield of licochalcone A, which has diverse biological activities; no product of deprenylation or abnormal Claisen rearrangement was formed. The abnormal Claisen rearrangement of -substituted allyl aryl ethers is known to be a problem in [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement reaction; this, however, was not detected in our water-accelerated system.
