4-Substituted-1-piperidinesulfonamides

Abstract

A series of novel 1-piperidinesulfonylurea compounds derived from a nitrogen-containing monocarboxylic acid have been prepared by reacting an appropriate sulfamide with an organic isocyanate or a trisubstituted urea equivalent thereof. The sulfamylureas so obtained are useful in therapy as oral hypoglycemic agents. Typical members include those compounds derived from 2-methoxynicotinic acid, of which 1-(bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yl-endomethyl)-3-{4-[2-(2-methoxynicotinamido )ethyl]-1-piperidinesulfonyl}urea is a most preferred embodiment.
