The new series of di- and tri- substituted benzimidazole derivatives designed and synthesized in this study show promising potential as PTP1B inhibitors and hypoglycemic agents. Compound 46 demonstrated the highest potency with a Ki value of 12.6 μM. Molecular dynamics studies suggest that these compounds could be selective inhibitors from other PTPs, providing valuable information for developing novel and selective PTP1B inhibitors based on benzimidazole scaffold.
Protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a negative regulator of insulin signaling pathway and has been validated as a therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes. A wide variety of scaffolds have been included in the structure of PTP1B inhibitors, one of them is the benzimidazole nucleus. Here, we report the design and synthesis of a new series of di- and tri- substituted benzimidazole derivatives including their kinetic and structural characterization as PTP1B inhibitors and hypoglycemic activity. Results show that compounds 43, 44, 45, and 46 are complete mixed type inhibitors with a Ki of 12.6 mu M for the most potent (46). SAR type analysis indicates that a chloro substituent at position 6(5), a beta-naphthyloxy at position 5(6), and a p-benzoic acid attached to the linker 2-thioacetamido at position 2 of the benzimidazole nucleus, was the best combination for PTP1B inhibition and hypoglycemic activity. In addition, molecular dynamics studies suggest that these compounds could be potential selective inhibitors from other PTPs such as its closest homologous TCPTP, SHP-1, SHP-2 and CDC25B. Therefore, the compounds reported here are good hits that provide structural, kinetic, and biological information that can be used to develop novel and selective PTP1B inhibitors based on benzimidazole scaffold.
