                                To overcome the known liabilities of GW4064 a series of analogs were synthesized where the stilbene double bond is replaced by an oxymethylene or amino-methylene linker connecting a terminal benzoic acid with a substituted heteroaryl in the middle ring position. As a result we discovered compounds with increased potency in vitro that cause dose-dependent reduction of plasma triglycerides and cholesterol in db/db mice down to 2 x 1 mg/kg/day upon oral administration.
