PRIOR ART
Although diet therapy is essential in the treatment of diabetes, when diet therapy does not sufficiently control the conditions of patients, insulin or oral antidiabetic is additionally used. There have been used as an antidiabetic biguanide compounds and sulfonyl urea compounds, however, these antidiabetics have various side effects, for example, biguanide compounds cause lactic acidosis, and sulfonyl urea compounds cause significant hypoglycemia. Under such circumstances, it has been desired to develop novel drugs for treatment of diabetes having no side effects.
Recently, it has been reported that hyperglycemia participates in the outbreak and deterioration of diabetes, i.e. glucose toxicity theory. That is, chronic hyperglycemia leads to progressive impairment in insulin secretion and contributes to insulin resistance, and as a result, the blood glucose concentration is increased so that diabetes evaluates [cf. Diabetologia Vol. 28,p. 119 (1985), Diabetes Care, 13, 610 (1990), etc.].
This theory is proved as follows. When the blood glucose concentration in diabetic animals is controlled at normal for a long time without using insulin, the conditions of diabetic animals are ameliorated to normal [cf. Journal of Clinical Investigation, Vol. 79, p. 1510 (1987), Vol. 80, p. 1037 (1987), Vol. 87, p. 561 (1991), etc.]. In these investigations, phlorizin was used by subcutaneous administration as a drug to normalize the blood glucose concentration.
Phlorizin is a glycoside which exists in barks and stems of Rosaceae (e.g. apple, pear, etc.), and was discovered in the 19th century, and has been studied since. Recently, it has been found that phlorizin is an inhibitor of Na.sup.+ -glucose co-transporter which exists only at the chorionic membrane of the intestine and the kidney, and that phlorizin inhibits the renal tubular glucose reabsorption and promotes the excretion of glucose so that the blood glucose is controlled.
However, when phlorizin is administered orally, most of it is hydrolyzed into phloretin, which is the aglycon of phlorizin, and glucose, and hence, the amount of phlorizin to be absorbed is so little that the urine glucose excretion effect of phlorizin is very weak. Besides, phloretin, which is the aglycon of phlorizin, has been known to inhibit strongly facilitated diffusion-type glucose transport carrier, for example, when phloretin is intravenously i administered to rats, the brain glucose is attenuated [cf. Stroke, Vol. 14, 388 (1983)]. However, when phlorizin is administered for a long time, there may be bad effects on various tissues, and hence, phlorizin has not been used as an antidiabetic.
Besides, 2'-O-(.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-6'-hydroxydihydrochalcone, 2'-O-(.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-4,6'-dihydroxydihydrochalcone and 2'-O-(.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-6'-hydroxy-4-methoxydihydrochalcone have been known to inhibit photophosphorylation at chloroplast [cf. Biochemistry, Vol. 8, p. 2067 (1967)]. Moreover, 2'-O-(.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-4,6'-dihydroxydihydrochalcone has also been known to inhibit Na.sup.+ -glucose co-transporter at the kidney [cf. Biochim. Biophys. Acta, Vol. 71, p. 688 (1963)]. However, it has never been disclosed that these compounds have urine glucose increasing activity even by oral administration.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
An object of the present invention is to provide dihydrochalcone derivatives which inhibit the renal tubular glucose reabsorption and/or inhibit the absorption of glucose at the intestine, and show excellent hypoglycemic activity as well as an aglycon thereof has weak inhibitory activity of facilitated diffusion-type glucose transport carrier. Another object of the present invention is to provide a hypoglycemic agent comprising as an active ingredient a dihydrochalcone derivative of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates a hypoglycemic agent comprising as an active ingredient a dihydrochalcone derivative of the formula[I]: ##STR2## wherein Ar is an aryl group, R.sup.1 is hydrogen atom or an acyl group, R.sup.2 is hydrogen atom, an acyl group or .alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl group, or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may combine together to form a substituted methylene group, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are each hydrogen atom or an acyl group, and a group of the formula: OR.sup.5 is a protected or unprotected hydroxy group or a lower alkoxy group, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
The dihydrochalcone derivatives [I], the active ingredient of the present invention, show excellent hypoglycemic activity based on the urine glucose increasing activity thereof. For example, when the active ingredient [I] of the present invention is administered to rats, the amount of glucose to be excreted into urine for 24 hours is about 5 to 40 times as much as those when phlorizin is administered. In addition, when the active ingredient [I] of the present invention is orally administered to glucose-loading diabetic mice, the increment in the blood glucose concentration thereof is remarkably attenuated. Thus, the hypoglycemic agent of the present invention is useful in the treatment of diabetes. The urine glucose increasing activity of the active ingredient [I] of the present invention is postulated to be based on the inhibitory activity of the renal glucose reabsorption, which is different from conventional hypoglycemic agents.
Besides, the active ingredient of the present possesses low toxicity, for example, when 2'-O-(.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-6'-hydroxy-4-methoxydihydrochalcone or 2'-O-(2,3-di-O-ethoxyacetyl-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-6'-hydroxy-4-methoxydihydrochalcone was orally and continuously administered to rats at a dose of 1000 mg/kg for 28 days, no rat was died.
The aglycone, which is a hydrolysate of the active ingredient of the present invention, is characteristic in its extremely weak glucose-uptake inhibitory activity,,which is different from phloretin. For example, human erythrocyte was incubated with D-[3-.sup.3 H]glucose for one minute, and the radioactivity of the erythrocyte was measured in order to estimate the amount of glucose to be incorporated into the erythrocyte. In this experiment, when an aglycon of the active ingredient [I] of the present invention, 2',4,6'-trihydroxdihydrochalcone, or 2',6'-dihydroxy-4-methoxydihydrochalcone was added to the reaction system, the amount of glucose to be incorporated into the erythrocyte is 92.7%, and 91.0%, respectively as compared with the amount of glucose to be incorporated into erythrocyte when no test compound was added. On the other hand, the amount of glucose to be incorporated into the erythrocyte was 13.7 when phloretin was added. Accordingly, the inhibitory activity of glucose incorporation into human erythrocyte of the aglycon of the active ingredient of the present is much smaller than that of phloretin, the aglycon of phlorizin, and hence, even though the active ingredient [I] of the present invention is partially hydrolyzed, the glucose concentration in tissues does not easily decrease.

In the acylation reactions of the above (2) and (3), the protecting group for hydroxy group in the compound [I-j] and the compound [I-k] may be any conventional ones which can be a protecting group for hydroxy group, for example, in addition the protecting groups for the group of the formula: OR.sup.5, benzyloxy group, a lower alkanoyl group, a lower alkoxycarbonyl group, and the like, or R.sup.13 and R.sup.23 may combine together to form benzylidene group, a lower alkoxy-substituted methylene group or a di-lower alkoxy-substituted methylene group.
In the acylation reactions in the above (1), (2), (3) and (4), when the group of the formula: OR.sup.5 in the starting compounds is a free hydroxy group, or Ar in the starting compounds is hydroxyphenyl group, these groups may also be acylated during the these acylation reactions, but the products thus obtained are also included in the desired compounds of the present invention.
The acylation of the starting compound is carried out by reacting the starting compound with an organic acid corresponding to the desired acyl group, or a salt thereof, or a reactive derivative thereof. The reaction with an acid compound corresponding to the desired acyl group may be carried out in the presence or absence of a condensing agent, and the reaction of the starting compound with a reactive derivative of the said compound is carried out in the presence or absence of an acid acceptor, in a solvent, respectively.

The condensing agent includes, for example, conventional ones such as phosphorus oxychloride, N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole, diethyl cyanophosphate, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and the like.
The solvent may be any conventional ones which do not affect disadvantageously the reaction, for example, dichloromethane, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, and the like.
The reaction is carried out under cooling or with heating, preferably at a temperature from -10.degree. C. to 100.degree. C., more preferably at a temperature from 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C.
In the above reaction, the degree of the acylation, i.e. the acylation of all hydroxy groups or selective acylation of some hydroxy groups, may be selected by controlling the difference of stereo-structural circumstance around the hydroxy group of the starting compound, or the amount of the acid compound, a salt thereof or a reactive derivative thereof. Therefore, both the compound [I-c] and the compound [I-f] may be selectively and freely prepared from the same starting compound [I-i].
In addition, in the obtained products, when R.sup.12 to R.sup.42 or R.sup.14 to R.sup.44 are an acyl group having a protected amino group, or the group of the formula: OR.sup.5 is a protected hydroxy group, these protecting groups may be removed, if necessary. The removal of these protecting groups may be carried by a conventional method such as hydrolysis, reduction, acid-treatment, etc., according to the types of the protecting groups to be removed.
Among the active compounds [I-A], the dihydrochalcone derivative of the formula [I-h] may be prepared by reacting the compound of the formula [I-i]and a compound of the formula [III-a]: ##STR17## wherein X is a reactive residue, and B.sup.1 and B.sup.2 are the same as defined above, or a compound of the formula [III-b]:
B.sup.1 --CHO [III-b]
wherein B.sup.1 is the same as defined above.
The reaction of the compound [I-i] and the compound [III-a] or the compound [III-b] may be carried out in the presence of an acid catalyst, or in the presence of an acid acceptor, in a solvent. The acid catalyst includes, for example, Lewis acids (e.g. zinc chloride, etc.), mineral acids (e.g. hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, etc.), or organic acids (e.g. p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, etc.). The acid-acceptor includes, for example, inorganic bases (e.g. an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkali metal carbonate, an alkali metal hydrogen carbonate, an alkali metal hydride, etc.), or a tri-lower alkylamine, pyridine, 4-dimethylaminopyridine, and the like. The reaction is carried out under cooling or with heating, preferably at a temperature from 10.degree. C. to 40.degree. C.
The solvent used in the above reactions may be any conventional ones which do not disadvantageously affect the reactions.
The starting compound of the formula [II] may be prepared by condensing an acetophenone derivative of the formula [IV]: ##STR18## wherein Z.sup.1, Z.sup.3 and Z.sup.4 are a protected or unprotected hydroxy group, Z.sup.2 is a protected or unprotected hydroxy group or .alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl group in which the hydroxy groups are protected, and OR.sup.5 is the same as defined above, with an aidehyde compound of the formula [V]:
Ar.sup.1 --OHO [V]
wherein Ar.sup.1 is the same as defined above, followed by removing the protecting groups, if necessary, further by acylating the hydroxy group of the product, or by reacting the product with the compound [III-a], or by reacting the product with the compound [III-b], if necessary.
The condensation reaction of the compound [IV] and the compound [V] may be carried out by a conventional method, for example, in the presence of a base (e.g. an alkali metal hydroxide, etc.)in a solvent (e.g. organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, etc., or a mixture of water and these organic solvents) under cooling or with heating, preferably at a temperature from 10.degree. C. to 30.degree. C.
In the starting compounds [IV], the "protected hydroxy group" includes hydroxy groups protected by a conventional protecting group such as a lower alkanoyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl-lower alkyl group, a tri-lower alkylsilyl group, etc. The removal of these protecting groups may be carried out by a conventional method such as hydrolysis, reduction, acidtreatment, etc.,which should be selected according to the types of the protecting groups to be removed. When said protecting group is a lower alkanoyl group such as acetyl group, the removal thereof may be advantageously carried out simultaneously with the condensation reaction in one step by using an alkali metal hydroxide.
Besides, in the condensation reaction for preparation of the compound [II], when hydroxybenzaldehyde is used as an aidehyde compound, the yield of the product is improved by the use of hydroxybenzaldehyde having phenolic hydroxy group protected.
In the above condensation reaction, the protecting group for phenolic hydroxy group of the aidehyde compound [V] may be any conventional ones which are easily removed by a conventional method such as hydrolysis, reduction, acid-treatment, and the like. More particularly, when the groups which are removed by reduction, i.e. substituted or unsubstituted phenyl-lower alkyl groups (e.g. benzyl group, etc.) are used as a protecting group, the removal of these protecting groups is advantageously carried out simultaneously with the reduction reaction of the chalcone derivative [II].
When the product is acylated after the condensation reaction, the acylation reaction may be carried out in the same procedures as in the reactions preparing the compounds [I-c]to [I-f]. When the product obtained by the condensation reaction and the compound [III-a] or the compound [III-b] are reacted, the reaction is carried out in the same procedures as the reaction preparing the compound [I-h].
The chalcone derivative [II] thus obtained may be used in the subsequent reduction reaction after purification, but used without further purification.
The compound of the formula [I-j] may be prepared, for example, by protecting the 2- and 3-hydroxy groups of the glucopyranosyl group of the compound [I-h] in which B.sup.1 is phenyl group and B.sup.2 is hydrogen atom, followed by removing substituents of the 4- and 6-hydroxy groups of the glucopyranosyi group.
The compound of the formula [I-k] may be prepared, for example, by protecting the 4 and 6-hydroxy groups of the glucopyranosyl group of the compound [I-j], followed by removing the protecting groups for the 2- and 3-hydroxy groups of the glucopyranosyl group.
In the above reactions, the protecting for the hydroxy groups of the glucopyranosyl group may be any ones which can be easily removed by a conventional method such as hydrolysis, reduction, acid-treatment, and the like.
The starting compound [IV] wherein Z.sup.1 to Z.sup.4 are acetyl group, may be prepared according to the method disclosed in Journal of Medicinal and Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Vol. 5, p. 1054 (1962), for example, by reacting 2',6'-dihydroxyacetophenone and 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl bromide in the presence of potassium hydroxide in an aqueous acetone.
The starting compound [IV] wherein Z.sup.1, Z.sup.3 and Z.sup.4 are acetyl group, and Z.sup.2 is .alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl group in which the hydroxy group is protected by acetyl group may be prepared by refluxing 2',6'-dihydroxyacetophenone and 2,3,6-tri-O-acetyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl bromide in the presence of cadmium carbonate in toluene.
Among the active compounds [I], the compound of the formula [I] R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are all hydrogen atom, and the group of the formula: OR.sup.5 is wherein Ar is 4-hydroxyphenyl group, 4-methoxyphenyl group or phenyl group, hydroxy group may be prepared according to the method disclosed in Biochemistry, Vol. 8, p. 2067 (1969).
Throughout the present specification, the "lower alkyl group", the "lower alkoxy group" and the "lower alkylene group" mean ones having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, respectively, and the "lower alkanoyl group" means ones having 2 to 7 carbon atoms, and "2'-O-(.alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl)" means "2-(.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)oxy".

Experiment 3: Urine glucose increasing activity in rats
Method:
A test compound solution (100 mg/5 ml/kg) was orally administered twice at 8-hr intervals to male SD-rats (3 to 5 rats/group, 6 wk old). The test compound solution was prepared by adding Tween 80 to a test compound, which was suspended into purified water. In the control group, purified water containing only Tween 80 was administered instead of the test compound solution. Rats were housed individually into a metabolite cage, and urine was collected for 24 hours after the first administration of the test compound. After measuring the urine volume, the urine was centrifuged in order to remove the impurity, and the urine glucose concentration therein was determined by glucose.analyzer (Appek Co. Ltd.). The amount of the urine glucose (mg) excreted for 24 hours was determined according to the urine volume (ml) and the urine glucose concentration therein (mg/ml). The amount of urine glucose excreted for 24 hours was in the range of 0 to 6 mg in the control group, and that of the phlorizin treated group was 11.+-.6 mg.
The results are shown in Table 3.

After 30 ml of the solvent is removed, 2,3,6-tri-O-acetyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl bromide (11.42 g) is added to the mixture, and the mixture is refluxed for 17 hours. After cooling, the insoluble materials are removed by filtration, and the filtrate is concentrated. The residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography to give 2'-O-[2,3,6-tri-O-acetyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-glucopyranosyl) -.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl]-6'-hydroxyacetophenone (4.30 g).

To a mixture or 6'-hydroxy-2'-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)acetophenone (2.41 g), p-anisaldehyde (1.36 g) and ethanol (25 ml) is added dropwise with stirring a 50% aqueous potassium hydroxide solution (2.5 ml), and the mixture is stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure, and to the resulting residue are added water (100 m) and diethyl ether (50 ml), and the mixture is stirred. The aqueous layer is collected, and neutralized with a 10% hydrochloric acid under ice-cooling, and thereto is added ethyl acetate (200 ml). The mixture is stirred, and the organic layer is collected, washed with water, dried, and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue is dissolved in ethanol (50 ml). The mixture is subjected to catalytic hydrogenation under atmospheric pressure with 10% palladium-carbon. The catalyst is removed by filtration, and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent; chloroform/methanol) to give 4-methoxy-6'-hydroxy-2'-O-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyldihydrochalcone (1.02 g) as white crystalline powders.

Effects of the Invention
The dihydrochalcone derivatives [I], which are active ingredients of the present invention, have urine glucose increasing activity being based on the inhibitory activity of renal glucose reabsorption thereof, by which they show excellent hypoglycemic activity. In addition, the dihydrochalcone derivatives [I] are hardly hydrolyzed at the intestine unlike phlorizin, and hence, they can be used in the prophylaxis or treatment of diabetes either by oral administration or by parenteral administration. Moreover, the active dihydrochalcone derivatives [I] have low toxicity, and the aglycone, a hydrolysate thereof, show extremely weak inhibitory effect on the glucose-uptake, and hence, the active dihydrochalcone derivatives [I] and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof show high safety as medicine.
