New oxadiazolidinedione derivatives as potent and selective human beta3 agonists

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2001 Apr 23;11(8):981-4. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(01)00147-0.

Abstract

As part of our investigation into the development of potent and selective human beta3 agonists, a series of thiazolidinedione analogues was prepared and evaluated for their biological activity on the human beta3-adrenergic receptor. The oxadiazolidinedione derivative 17 was found to be the most potent and selective compound in this study, with an EC50 value of 0.02 microM at the beta3 receptor, 259-fold selectivity over the beta1 receptor, and 745-fold selectivity over the beta2 receptor.
