Metabolic diseases are increasing at staggering rates globally. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARα/γ/δ) are fatty acid sensors that help mitigate imbalances between energy uptake and utilization. Herein, we report compounds derived from phenolic lipids present in cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL), an abundant waste byproduct, in an effort to create effective, accessible, and sustainable drugs. Derivatives of anacardic acid and cardanol were tested for PPAR activity in HEK293 cell co-transfection assays, primary hepatocytes, and 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In vivo studies using PPAR-expressing zebrafish embryos identified CNSL derivatives with varying tissue-specific activities. LDT409 (23) is an analogue of cardanol with partial agonist activity for PPARα and PPARγ. Pharmacokinetic profiling showed that 23 is orally bioavailable with a half-life of 4 h in mice. CNSL derivatives represent a sustainable source of selective PPAR modulators with balanced intermediate affinities (EC50 ～100 nM to 10 μM) that provide distinct and favorable gene activation profiles for the treatment of diabetes and obesity.

(15:0)-Anacardic acid (6-pentadecylsalicylic acid), prepared by reduction of unsaturated anacardic acid from Anacardium occidentale, has been converted into anacardic alcohol (6-pentadecylsalicylic alcohol) and thence by oxidation at carbon into anacardaldehyde.Phenolic oxidation of anacardic alcohol led to 8-pentadecyl-1-oxaspiroocta-5,7-dien-4-one, itself readily convertible photochemically, but less so thermally, into anacardaldehyde.Reaction of thionyl chloride with anacardic acid led mainly to the anhydride, which by hydride reduction gave anacardaldehyde less satisfactorily.Dakin oxidation of anacardaldehyde furnished (15:0)-urushiol (3-pentadecylcatechol) identical chemically and from argentation t.l.c. with the hydrogenated natural product from Rhus vernicifera. (15:0)-Cardanol (3-pentadecylphenol) has been detected in hydrogenated urushiol.The composition of the unsaturated constituents of urushiol from Rhus vernicifera and Rhus toxicodendron and its mode of formation have been discussed.An improved synthesis of (15:0)-urushiol has been devised based on an organo-lithium route.Aromatic methyl ether and ester formation in this series is greatly facilitated by phase-transfer catalysis.
