Synthesis of 4-(<i>N</i>⁴-methyl-5-aryl-1,2,4-triazole-5-ilmethylthio) cresoxyacetic acids and their sulfonic analogues of new potential PPARδ/β agonists

Abstract

A nine-stage scheme for the synthesis of 4-( N 4-methyl-5-aryl-1,2,4-triazole-5-ilmethylthio) cresoxyacetic acids of new potential PPARδ/β agonists based on substituted benzoic acids has been developed. Their sulfon-containing analogues were obtained from the intermediate esters of such acids.
