This invention provides compounds of Formula I having the structure

Amino-thiazolidinediones useful in the treatment of insulin resistance and hyperglycemia

This invention provides compounds of Formula I having the structure ##STR1## wherein: A, B, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are as defined in the specification, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which are useful in treating metabolic disorders related to insulin resistance or hyperglycemia.

Phenyl oxo-acetic acids useful in the treatment of insulin resistance

This invention relates to compounds which inhibit lipoxygenase in the metabolism of arachidonic acid and thus inhibits formation of leukotrienes which are implicated in inflammatory processes and bronchoconstriction and inhibits the oxidation of LDL which is implicated in formation of atherosclerotic plaque. The compounds useful in this invention are represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein: R.sup.2 is hydrogen, halogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl; Y of O or S;R.sup.5 is hydrogen or methyl

Aryl-n-hydroxyureas as inhbitors of 5-lipoxygenase and

This invention relates to novel compounds which have demonstrated oral antihyperglycemic activity in diabetic ob/ob and db/db mice, animal models on non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM ot Type II diabetes). These compounds have the formula: ##STR1## wherein: R.sup.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.8 cycloalkyl, thienyl, furyl, pyridyl, ##STR2## where R.sup.10 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyoxy, trifluoroalkyl or trifluoroalkoxy;

New azolidinediones and thiadiazolidinediones as antihyperglycemic agents

This invention relates to novel compounds which have demonstrated oral antihyperglycemic activity in diabetic ob/ob and db/db mice, animal models on non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM ot Type II diabetes). These compounds have the formula: ##STR1## wherein: X os O or S;

Azolidinediones as antihypergylcemic agents

This invention relates to novel compounds having antihyperglycemic properties of the formula: ##STR1## where A is ##STR2## wherein:

Aralkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazolidine-3,5-diones as antihyperglycemic agents

This invention relates to compounds which have oral antihyperglycemic activity of the formula: ##STR1## wherein: R.sup.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.8 cycloalkyl, thienyl, furyl, pyridyl, ##STR2## R.sup.2 is hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl; X os O or S;

Azolidinediones as antihyperglycemic agents

This invention relates to compounds which inhibit lipoxygenase in the metabolism of arachidonic acid and thus inhibits formation of leukotrienes which are implicated in inflammatory processes and bronchoconstriction and inhibits the oxidation of LDL which is implicated in formation of atherosclerotic plaque. The compounds useful in this invention are represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein: R.sup.2 is hydrogen, halogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl; Y of O or S; R.sup.5 is hydrogen or methyl R.sup.6 is --NH.sub.2, --CH.sub.3 or --OCH.sub.3 ;

Aryl-N-hydroxyureas as inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase and

This invention relates to novel 2-[4-(5-substituted-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-ylmethoxy)benzyl]-1,2,5-oxadiazolidi ne-3,5-diones which have demonstrated antihyperglycemic activity in diabetic (ob/ob and db/db) mice, genetic animal models of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM or Type II diabetes). These compounds are represented by Formula I below: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl, optionally substituted by one to three substituents independently selected from C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 trifluoroalkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 trifluoroalkoxy; and
