Abstract
The impact of thiazole derivatives as a hypoglycemic agent has been noted for many decades. Thiazole is heterocyclic containing sulphur and nitrogen as heteroatom whereas the free pi (π) electrons can move from one bond to another freely to have aromatic properties. Due to these aromatic properties, various reactions are possible with these rings due to the various donor-acceptor position. Thiazole can regulate various physiochemical processes within the body. Due to this, it has been reported for various biological activities such as antimicrobial, antitumor, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory etc. However, there are various drugs containing thiazole are rosiglitazone, pioglitazone, and troglitazone have shown their effectiveness in controlling elevated blood sugar. In this regard, the present review explains the different thiazole derivatives synthesized and their impact as hypoglycemic agents.
