3-(4-(BENZYLOXY)PHENYL)HEX-4-INOIC ACID DERIVATIVE, SUITABLE FOR PREVENTING AND TREATING METABOLIC DISEASES

The present invention relates to a novel 3-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)hex-4-inoic acid derivative, a preparation method thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same as an active ingredient for the prevention and treatment of metabolic disease. The novel 3-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)hex-4-inoic acid derivative, the optical isomer thereof, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof of the present invention has excellent activities of activating GPR40 protein and promoting insulin secretion accordingly but has no toxicity when co-administered with other drugs. That is, the novel 3-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)hex-4-inoic acid derivative, the optical isomer thereof, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof of the present invention can be co-administered with other drugs and can promote the activation of GPR40 protein significantly, so that the composition comprising the same as an active ingredient can be efficiently used as a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention and treatment of metabolic disease such as obesity, type I diabetes, type II diabetes, incompatible glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, dyslipidemia, and syndrome X, etc.
