Abstract: 2-O-carboxymethylpyrogallol derivatives (4-17) were synthesized, with their in vitro inhibitory activities against PTP1B and in vivo antihyperglycemic effects examined. Compound 14, the most potent among the series, showed a K(i) value of 1.1 microM against PTP1B, 7-fold lower than that against TC-PTP. When compound 14 was fed to a high-fat diet-induced diabetic mouse model, significant improvements were observed in both the fasting glucose level and glucose tolerance.
