Abstract

A novel hybrid class of telmisartan-rosiglitazone molecules was synthesized in an attempt to discover a dual peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist/angiotensin II antagonist for treatment for metabolic syndrome. Almost all the synthesized molecules showed moderate PPARγ activity. However, none of the hybrid analogs showed binding affinity toward the AT1 receptor.
