Abstract

The discovery of the potent hypoglycemic action of N-butyl-N'-sulphanylurea (Carbutamide, I)1 stimulated wide investigations of the chemically related compounds2 but most of them were toxic for human use. However, N-butyl-N'-p-toluenesulphonylurea (Tolbutamide, II) and N-propyl-N'-pchlorobenzenesulphonylurea (Chlorpropamide, III) have been widely used without toxic side effects in the treatment of mild diabetes mellitus of the adult type.
