A series of β-aminoacyl containing thiazolidine derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit DPP-IV. Several thiazolidine derivatives with an acid moiety were found to be potent DPP-IV inhibitors. Among them, compound 2da is the most active in this series with an IC(50) value of 1 nM, and it showed excellent selectivity over DPP-IV related enzymes including DPP-2, DPP-8, and DPP-9. Compound 2da is chemically and metabolically stable, and showed no CYP inhibition, hERG binding or cytotoxicity. Compound 2db, an ester prodrug of 2da, showed good in vivo DPP-IV inhibition after oral administration in rat and dog models.

A new series of chiral δ-thiolactone derivatives have been prepared. These compounds exemplify the acetalic N-C-S reversibility of fused thiazolidines toward the thermodynamic product. The stereochemistry of the synthesized compounds was elucidated using X-ray crystallography, NOESY spectroscopy, and DFT calculations.

A series of new quinazolin-2,4-dione derivatives incorporating amide/eight-membered nitrogen-heterocycles -, in addition, acylthiourea/amide/dithiolan-4-one and/or phenylthiazolidin-4-one - and -. The starting compound was prepared by reaction of 4-(2,4-dioxo-1,4-dihydro-2-quinazolin-3-yl)-benzoyl chloride with ammonium thiocyanate and cyanoacetic acid hydrazide. The reaction of with strong electrophiles, namely, -aminophenol, -amino thiophenol, and/or -phenylene diamine, resulted in corresponding quinazolin-2,4-dione derivatives incorporating eight-membered nitrogen-heterocycles -.

Dual-targeting drug design has become a popular approach in investigating and developing potent anticancer agents. In this regard, carbonic anhydrase (CAIX) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR-2) are emerging as highly effective targets in the battle against cancer. In the present study, two series of 4-thiazolidinones/2,4-thiazolidinediones carrying 2-methylbenzenesulfonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized as potential dual CAIX/VEGFR-2 inhibitors.
