Proteintyrosinephosphatase1B (PTP1B) is a negative regulator in the process of insulin signaling and a promising drug target for diabetes and obesity. Derivatives of oleanolic acid were synthesized and evaluated as PTP1B inhibitors. Several derivatives exhibited moderate to good inhibitory activities against PTP1B, with 25f displaying the most promising inhibition (IC50 = 3.12 μM). Structure−activity
