Synthesis and biological activity of heterocycle-fused derivatives of pentacylic triterpenes as glycogen phosphorylase inhibitors

  • Aim :To search for novel modulators of glycogen metabolism through structural modifications of natural pentacyclic triterpenes. Methods :A series of N-heterocyclic derivatives were synthesized by fusing indole,quinoxaline and pyrazine rings with A-ring of oleanolic and ursolic acids.The compounds were biologically evaluated for their inhibitory activity against rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase. Results and Conclusion :Twelve heterocyclic triterpene derivatives were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by IR,1H NMR,13C NMR and MS.Except for compound 12 ,all of the compounds exhibited glycogen phosphorylase inhibitory activity with IC50 values in the range of 14-252 μmol/L.Among this series of compounds,compound 15 showed the best potency with IC50 of 14 μmol/L.
