GPR119 is a promising target for discovery of anti-type 2 diabetes mellitus agents. We described the optimisation of a novel series of pyrimido[5,4-b][1,4]oxazine derivatives as GPR119 agonists. Most designed compounds exhibited good agonistic activities. Among them, compound 10 and 15 demonstrated the potent EC50 values (13 and 12 nM, respectively) and strong inherent activities. Moreover, significant hypoglycaemic effect of compound 15 was observed by reducing the blood glucose AUC0–2h at the dose of 30 mg/kg, which is stronger than Vildagliptin (23.4% reduction vs. 17.9% reduction).

We described the discovery and optimization of a novel series of pyrimidopyrimidine derivatives as G-protein coupled receptor 119 (GPR119) agonists against type 2 diabetes. Most designed compounds displayed significant GPR119 agonistic activities. Optimized analogues 15a and 21e exhibited highly potent agonistic activities with single digit EC 50 values (2.2 nM and 8.1 nM, respectively). Therefore, 15a and 21e were evaluated for their oral glucose tolerance test (oGTT) in C57BL/6N mice. Compound 15a reduced the blood glucose area of under curve from 0 to 2 h (AUC 0–2h ) to 13.5% at the dose of 15 mg/kg comparing with Metformin reduced 18% of AUC 0–2h at the dose of 300 mg/kg.

A class of novel pyrimidine derivatives bearing diverse conformationally restricted azabicyclic ether/amine were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their GPR119 agonist activities against type 2 diabetes. Most compounds exhibited superior hEC 50 values to endogenous lipid oleoylethanolamide (OEA). Analogs with 2-fluoro substitution in the aryl ring showed more potent GPR119 activation than those without fluorine. Especially compound 27m synthesized from endo -azabicyclic alcohol was observed to have the best EC 50 value (1.2 nM) and quite good agonistic activity (112.2% max) as a full agonist.

Abstract: 5-Nitropyrimidine analogs substituted with conformationally restricted azabicyclic amines and alcohols were prepared and evaluated their agonistic activity against human GPR119. The analogs bearing endo-azabicyclic amines and alcohols (7, 8, 11, and 12) exhibited full agonistic activities while the analogs with exo-azabicyclic amines and alcohols were proved as partial agonists (9, 10, 13, and 14) regardless of their EC50 values. 5-Nitropyrimidine analogs with (2-fluoro-4-methylsulfonyl)phenylamino group (8, 10, 12, 14) showed more potent GPR119 activation activities than the analogs without fluorine in all cases (7, 9, 11, 13).

Abstract: GPR119 agonist has emerged as a promising target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. A series of novel 2,4-disubstituted quinazoline analogues was prepared and evaluated their agonistic activity against human GPR119. The analogues bearing azabicyclic amine substituents (12a, 12c and 12g) exhibited better EC50 values than that of OEA though they appeared to be partial agonists. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
