Combating diabetes: A small‐molecule carbohydrate mimic, pseudo‐sergliflozin, was synthesized effectively by a regio‐ and stereoselective allylic substitution reaction. It was found to be a potent and selective inhibitor of a transporter protein—sodium‐dependent glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2)—which is responsible for glucose reabsorption in the human body. It could be a lead compound for further development into an antidiabetic agent.
