Design, synthesis and evaluation of substituted phenylpropanoic acid derivatives as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activators: novel human PPARα-selective activators
A series of substituted phenylpropanoic acid derivatives was prepared as part of a search for subtype-selective human peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activators. Structure-activity relationship studies indicated that the substituent at the alpha -position of the carboxyl group plays a key role in determining the potency and the selectivity for PPAR trans activation.

Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Substituted Phenylpropanoic Acid Derivatives as Human Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor Activators. Discovery of Potent and Human Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor α Subtype-Selective Activators
Substituted phenylpropanoic acidderivatives were prepared as part of a search for subtype-selective human peroxisomeproliferatoractivatedreceptoralpha (PPARalpha) activators. Structure-activity relationship studies indicated that the nature and the stereochemistry of the substituent at the alpha-position of the head part containing the carboxyl group, the distance between the carboxyl group and
