title: Species-specific hypoglycemic activity of triphenylphosphoranylideneacetophenones.
abstract: The species-specific hypoglycemic activity of two 2-triphenylphosphoranylideneacetophenones is described. 2-Triphenylphosphoranylideneacetophenone (SK&F 45359) and 2-triphenylphosphoranylidene-m-trifluoromethyl-acetophenone (SK&F 62775) were hypoglycemic in various rat models, but failed to exhibit hypoglycemic activity in other species.
