    To achieve the unmet discovery of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitors, we have rationally designed novel biphenyl thiazolidinedione conjugates (8a-n). The designed molecules were found fit on in silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) screening criteria of drug-likeness. Ligand-target binding study revealed that N-methyl benzoic acid derivative (8j) was best target fit and displayed extended plausible binding interactions with phospho-tyrosine (pTyr) loop of PTP1B, a unique bidentate binding mode for PTP1B selectivity over other PTPs. The designed analogues (8a-n) were synthesized (Scheme 1) and accessed for their in vitro PTP1B inhibitory potency, in vivo anti-hyperglycemic efficacy as well as the effect of treatment on weight and pancreatic safety. Molecules 8a-n showed moderate to good PTP1B inhibitory activity (IC50 = 5.897�48.150 �M) compared to Suramin (IC50 = 11.104 �M) and exhibited time-dependent in vivo efficacy, ranging from inferior to better, as compared to Pioglitazone. Moreover, 8j was found best pre-clinical candidate exhibiting good in vitro potency (IC50 = 5.897 �M), better in vivo efficacy with the advantage of control in weight and pancreatic safety, compared to glitazone therapy. � 2022 Elsevier B.V.
