A new class of N-substituted piperazine analogues of imbricatolic acid have been designed and synthesized by using the appropriate synthetic routes in excellent yield. All synthesised compounds were screened for their in vitro glucose uptake stimulatory activity. Among them compounds 4b, 4e, 8b, and 8e triggered L6 skeletal muscle cells for glucose uptake at 54.73%, 40.79%, 40.90%, and 39.55% stimulation, respectively. Compound 4b has emerged as important lead compound showing potential antidiabetic activity. Illustration about their synthesis and in vitro glucose uptake activity is described.
