The thiazolidinedione moiety of ciglitazone and its analogues can be replaced by an alpha-alkoxy or alpha-thioether carboxylic acid group. The influence of the nature of the R group, the length of the connector to the aromatic backbone of the molecule, and the stereochemistry have been studied. The most potent compounds have glucose-lowering activity at doses as low as 0.01 mg/kg.
