Novel design principle validated: glucopyranosylidene-spiro-oxathiazole as new nanomolar inhibitor of glycogen phosphorylase, potential antidiabetic agent

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2008 Oct 15;18(20):5680-3. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2008.08.052. Epub 2008 Aug 22.

Abstract

2-Naphthyl-substituted glucopyranosylidene-spiro-oxathiazole prepared following a novel design principle was found to be the best known glucose analogue inhibitor of rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (K(i) 160 nM).
