[Object] To provide a pharmaceutical product (chemotherapeutic agent) effective in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia, obesity, etc.
[Solving Means] A phenylimidazole compound represented by the following General Formula (1):
wherein, R1 represents a hydrogen atom, a phenyl lower alkyl group optionally having a substituent, or a pyridyl lower alkyl group optionally having a substituent, and the benzene ring and the pyridine ring are optionally substituted with 1 or 2 substituents selected from the group consisting of halogen atoms, cyano group and halogen-substituted lower alkyl groups. One of R2 and R3 represents a hydrogen atom and the other represents a lower alkoxy group. R4 represents a phenyl group optionally having a substituent. R5 and R6 are the same or different, and represent a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group. R7 and R8 are the same or different, and represent a hydrogen atom or a lower alkoxy group. However, when R1 represents an unsubstituted phenyl lower alkyl group, R2 represents a lower alkoxy group, R3 represents a hydrogen atom, R4 represents a phenyl group optionally having a substituent, and R5 represents a hydrogen atom, R6 is not a hydrogen atom.
[目的]提供一种对预防和治疗高脂血症、肥胖症等有效的药品(化疗药物)。
[解决手段] 一种苯基
咪唑类化合物,由以下通式(1)表示:
其中,R1 代表氢原子、任选具有取代基的苯基低级烷基或任选具有取代基的
吡啶基低级烷基,苯环和
吡啶环任选被 1 或 2 个取代基取代,这些取代基选自由卤素原子、
氰基和卤素取代的低级烷基组成的组。R2 和 R3 中的一个代表氢原子,另一个代表低级烷氧基。R4 代表任选具有取代基的苯基。R5 和 R6 相同或不同,代表氢原子或低级烷基。R7 和 R8 相同或不同,代表氢原子或低级烷氧基。然而,当 R1 代表未取代苯基低级烷基,R2 代表低级烷氧基,R3 代表氢原子,R4 代表可选具有取代基的苯基,R5 代表氢原子时,R6 不是氢原子。
