(TA-1887), a highly potent and selective hSGLT2 inhibitor, with pronounced antihyperglycemic effects in high-fat diet-fed KK (HF-KK) mice. Our results suggest the potential of indole-N-glucosides as novel antihyperglycemic agents through inhibition of renal SGLT2



Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-I) is an incretin hormone that is released from L-cells in lower small intestine after food intake. GLP-I has been shown to stimulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and increase pancreatic β-cell mass. GLP-I has also been shown to reduce the rate of gastric emptying and promote satiety. However, GLP-I is rapidly cleaved by dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) leading to inactivation of its biological activity. Therefore, DPP4 inhibitors are considered to be useful as anti-diabetics or anti-obesity agents.
Sodium-glucose co-transporters (SGLTs) , primarily found in the intestine and the kidney, are a family of proteins involved in glucose absorption. Plasma glucose is filtered in the glomerulus and is reabsorbed by SGLTs in the proximal tubules. Therefore, inhibition of SGLTs cause excretion of blood glucose into urine and leads to reduction of plasma glucose level. In fact, it is confirmed that by continuous subcutaneous administration of an SGLT inhibitor, phlorizin, to diabetic animal models, the blood glucose level thereof can be normalized, and that by keeping the blood glucose level normal for a long time, the insulin secretion and insulin resistance can be improved [cf., Journal of Clinical Investigation, vol. 79, p. 1510 (1987); ibid., vol. 80, p. 1037 (1987); ibid., vol. 87, p. 561 (1991) ] .
In addition, by treating diabetic animal models with an SGLT inhibitor for a long time, insulin secretion response and insulin sensitivity of the animal models are improved without incurring any adverse affects on the kidney or imbalance in blood levels of electrolytes, and as a result, the onset and progress of diabetic nephropathy and diabetic neuropathy are prevented [cf., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, vol. 42, p. 5311 (1999); British Journal of Pharmacology, vol. 132, p. 578 (2001)].
In view of the above, SGLT inhibitors are expected to improve insulin secretion and insulin resistance by decreasing the blood glucose level in diabetic patients and to prevent the onset and progress of diabetes mellitus and diabetic complications

A 12-L 4-neck round bottom flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, a thermocouple, a septum and nitrogen inlet adapter, was charged with the compound prepared as in Example 3 above (250 g, 0.413 mol), MeOH (1 .2 L) and THF (2.4 L), and the resulting mixture was stirred at 20°C under N2.
Sodium methoxide (2.5 ml_, 0.012 mol) solution was added dropwise and the resulting mixture was stirred at 20°C for 3 h. The solvent was concentrated at 60°C under house vacuum to yield a residue, which was dissolved in EtOAc (8.0 L), washed with brine (800 mL x 2) (Note 2), and dried over MgS04. The insoluble materials were removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated at 60-66°C under hi-vacuum (20 mmHg) to yield the title compound as a slightly yellowish foamy solid.
The above obtained slightly yellowish foamy solid (195.1 g) was dissolved in EtOH (900 mL) at 76°C, and deionized H20 (1800 mL) was added slowly in a small stream that resulted in a slightly yellowish clear solution, which was then gradually cooled to 40°C with stirring while seeded (wherein the seeds were prepared, for example, as described in Example 5, below). The resulting slightly white-yellowish suspension was stirred at 20°C for 20 h, the solids were collected by filtration, washed with cold (0°C) EtOH/H20 (1 :4), and dried by air-suction for 6 h with gentle stream of N2 to yield the title compound as an off-white crystalline solid, as its corresponding EtOH/H20 solvate.
The structure of the EtOH/H20 solvate was confirmed by its 1H-NMR and LC-MS analyses. 1H-NMR indicated strong H20 and EtOH solvent residues, and the EtOH residue could not be removed by drying process. In addition, p-XRD of this crystalline solid showed a different pattern than that measured for a hemi-hydrate standard.

Glucose analogs have long been used for the study of glucose transport and for the characterization of glucose transporters (for review, see Gatley (2003) J Nucl Med. 44(7):1082-6). Alpha-methylglucoside (AMG) is often the analog of choice for cell-based assays designed to study the activity of SGLT1 and/or SGLT2.

Abstract Image
A practical synthesis of two N-glycoside indoles 1 and 2, identified as highly potent sodium-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT) inhibitors is described. Highlights of the synthetic process include a selective and quantitative Vilsmeier acylation and a high-yielding Grignard coupling reaction. The chemistry developed has been applied to prepare two separate SGLT inhibitors 1 and 2 for clinical evaluation without recourse to chromatography.
Preparation of (2R,3R,4S,5S,6R)-2-(3-(4-Cyclopropylbenzyl)-4-fluoro-1H-indol-1-yl)-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3,4,5-triol (1)
To a solution of compound 6 (250 g, 0.413 mol) in MeOH (1.2 L) and THF (2.4 L) was added sodium methoxide (2.5 mL, 0.012 mol), .............DELETED....................... There was obtained 198.5 g (97.5% isolated yield based on free base form; 98.8 LCAP) of 1 EtOH/H2O solvate as an off-white crystalline solid. A slurry of the EtOH/H2O solvate 1 (198.5 g, 0.399 mol) in de-ionized H2O (3.2 L,) was warmed to 76 °C, and then the slurry was gradually cooled to 20 °C over 30 min. The white suspension was stirred at 20 °C for 20 min and then at 10 °C for 1 h. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with de-ionized H2O (100 mL × 2), dried in an oven at 50 °C for 20 h and further at 60 °C for 3 h to afford 177.4 g, (99.8% isolated yield, 98.6 LCAP) of 1 hemihydrate as an off-white crystalline solid, of which the 1H NMR showed no EtOH residue and the powder X-ray diffraction (pXRD) confirmed that it was a crystalline solid. TGA indicated it contained 2.3% of water.
