Abstract
Design, synthesis, and SAR of novel α-alkoxy-β-arylpropionic acids as potent and balanced PPARαγ coagonists are described. One representative thereof, Aleglitazar ((S)-2Aa), was chosen for clinical development. Its X-ray structure in complex with both receptors as well as its high efficacy in animal models of T2D and dyslipidemia are also presented.
