Three new derivatives of porphobilinogen (PBG;1) were designed and synthesized to study the mechanism of ammonia loss during the tetramerization of PBG, catalyzed by the enzyme PBG deaminase. Two of these compounds are substituted at the C-11 carbon with CH3 or CF3, while the third analog is the N-methyl derivative of PBG wherein the pyrrole proton is replaced with methyl. All three compounds reacted
The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I), which have valuable pharmacological properties, in particular are activators of AMPK and which are therefore useful in the treatment of certain disorders that can be prevented or treated by activation of this receptor. The compounds are suitable for treatment and prevention of diseases which can be influenced by this receptor, such as metabolic diseases, in particular diabetes type 2.
