Abstract
New compounds showing hypoglycaemic activity have been designed hrough a computer-aided method based on QSAR (quantitative structure activit y relationship) and molecular connectivity. The pharmacological tests carried out on the newly designed compounds demonstrated the existence of notable activity for two of them, namely: 4-(3-methyl-5-oxo-2-pyra zolin-1-yl) benzoic acid (CAS 60875-16-3) and 1-(mesitylen-2-sulfonyl) -1H-1,2,4-triazole (CAS 54230-59-0). Both substances mainly follow a m echanism based on the response to the oral glucose overcharge, decreas ing the glycemia to lower levels as compared with tolbutamide, which i s used as a standard drug, and reaching normal glycaemia at a similar time.
