In the field of
biomedicine, the importance and potential value of the carbon-
glycoside compounds are increasingly prominent. Carbon-
glucoside widely existing in
medicinal plants shows remarkable physiological activity in the aspects of
oxidation resistance,
inflammation resistance,
bacteria resistance and the like; wherein the
natural product of beta-acyl-carbon-
glucoside, namely Sclerpentasides A-F, is separated from a semi-
parasitic plant Dendrophthoe pentras, and is used for treating the hypertension and the
diabetes mellitus in the Thailand
traditional medicine, so that the Sclerpentasides A-F can be used for treating the hypertension and the
diabetes mellitus. Beta-acyl-carbon-
glycoside is formed by acyl and
glycosyl, keto carbonyl of the beta-acyl-carbon-
glycoside has potential
chemical conversion capacity, and a new thought is provided for modification of existing carbon-glycoside drugs. In pharmaceutical
chemistry, carbon-glycosides are often used as stable mimetics of
oxygen-glycosides and
nitrogen-glycosides, which are designed according to the characteristics that carbon-glycosides are used as
electron isosteres of
oxygen glycosides in pharmaceutical
chemistry and can
resist hydrolase and other
decomposition pathways
in vivo. A high-efficiency synthetic
route is designed, and beta-acyl-carbon-
glucoside can be successfully constructed through two-step reaction from
sugar bromoglycoside. Wherein the beta-acyl-carbon-glucoside has excellent SGLT2 inhibitory activity, can effectively inhibit
glucose absorption, and can be used for controlling
blood sugar and treating
diabetes mellitus.
