Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention provides a method for synthesizing eupatilinene glycosylthioglycosides and their hypoglycemic activity, belonging to the field of pharmaceutical technology. Background Art

[0002] Eupatilin is a benzofuran compound isolated from plants of the genus Eupatorium, which has a wide range of biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, antibacterial, and hypoglycemic. Literature research found that the structural modification of eupatilin may enhance its hypoglycemic activity. In recent years, most of the structural modifications of eupatilin are to add some substituents to the structural core of eupatilin to make some functional group transformations. For example, in the previous research of this research group, a chalcone structure was connected to the core structure of eupatilin, and it was found that it has good hypoglycemic activity.

[0003] Sulfur is an essential element for life and is widely present in biomedical materials, fine chemicals, and drugs. Most natural products are mainly oxygen glycosides. Glycosides formed by replacing oxygen atoms with sulfur atoms are usually used as glycosyl donors to construct various glycosidic bonds. On the other hand, thioglycosides are more resistant to enzymatic cleavage and chemical degradation and have higher metabolic stability, and have extensive applications in biological research and drug development. For example, the anti-rheumatic drug Auranofin, the antibacterial drugs Lincomycin and Clindamycin, and the drug Sotagliflozin for treating heart failure, type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease all contain thioglycoside structures. Therefore, replacing oxygen glycosides with thioglycosyl analogs has become an important means to improve pharmacological activity. However, due to the strong nucleophilicity of sulfur-containing functional groups and the toxicity of catalysts, the stereoselective control of this method is often difficult. Based on the previous development of hypoglycemic drugs from eupatilin derivatives in this research group (open-chain polymers of eupatilin, preparation methods and uses ZL202211519521.9, a class of eupatilin chalcone compounds, preparation methods and their applications ZL202310054740.2), the synthesis method of eupatilinene glycosylthioglycosides and their hypoglycemic activity uses have been further studied in order to provide new candidate drugs for the treatment of diabetes.

The drugs of each group were added into a 96-well plate according to the above doses. There were three parallels in each group. After shaking and mixing for 2 min, the reaction was carried out at 37 °C for 10 min. Then 25 μL of PNPG solution was added, and after shaking and mixing for 2 min, the reaction was carried out at 37 °C for 30 min. Then 100 μL of Na 2 CO 3 solution was added to terminate the reaction, and after shaking and mixing for 5 min.
