Dealing with diabetes: Carnitine palmitoyltransferases (CPT) are promising new targets for the treatment of diabetes. Here, derivatives of R ‐aminocarnitine, with the quaternary ammonium moiety replaced by groups lacking a permanent cationic charge, were designed and evaluated in vitro and in vivo as L‐ CPT I inhibitors.
