Long chain saturated and unsaturated alkyl sulfamide and propyl sulfamide derivatives, analogs of oleoylethanolamide, have been synthesized and evaluated in vivo and in vitro as peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) activators. Additionally, the anorexic effects of the new compounds have been studied in vivo in food-deprived rats. Among the active compounds N-octadecyl-N'-propylsulfamide (7) has been identified as a potent hypolipidemic compound, a potent feeding suppressant, and a concentration-dependent activator of PPARalpha.
