An efficient and practical methodology for the synthesis of (benzo)thiazoles-containing amides through pyridine-mediated acylation of 2‐amino(benzo)thiazoles under ultrasonic irradiation was developed. The short reaction time (within 1 min), good functional group tolerance, experimental simplicity and ease of scale-up were salient features of the present strategy, which enables straightforward access
Free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2) is a G-protein coupled receptor for which only short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) have been reported as endogenous ligands. We describe the discovery and optimization of phenylacetamides as allosteric agonists of FFA2. These novel ligands can suppress adipocyte lipolysis in vitro and reduce plasma FFA levels in vivo, suggesting that these allosteric modulators can serve as pharmacological tools for exploring the potential function of FFA2 in various disease conditions.
