title: Omega-(2-Naphthyloxy) amino alkanes as a novel class of anti-hyperglycemic and lipid lowering agents.
abstract: omega-(2-Naphthyloxy) amino alkanes, obtained as major by-product during course of synthesis of carbamate esters from omega-(2-naphthyloxy) alkyl halides and amines, showed significant anti-hyperglycemic and lipid lowering activities in various test models as a novel class of compounds. Compounds were tested in rat GLM, SLM, STZ, and STZ-S models at 100mg/kg dose. Of these compound 13 was found to be the most active which caused lowering of sugar by 33.6%, 31.0%, 28.5%, and 73.8% in GLM, SLM, STZ, STZ-S, and db/db mice models, respectively. It also significantly effected lowering of LDL in rat model and also in Hamster model without reducing HDL. Most of the compounds showing anti-diabetic and lipid lowering activity have shown promising PPAR-alpha/gamma/delta-activity. Compounds 6, 13, and 19 have shown very good PPAR-alpha/gamma/delta activity.
