Abstract
Six new 2α-hydroxy ursane triterpenoids, 3α-cis-p-coumaroyloxy-2α,19α-dihydroxy-12-ursen-28-oic acid (1), 3α-trans-p-coumaroyloxy-2α,19α-dihydroxy-12-ursen-28-oic acid (2), 3α-trans-p-coumaroyloxy-2α-hydroxy-12-ursen-28-oic acid (3), 3β-trans-p-coumaroyloxy-2α-hydroxy-12,20(30)-ursadien-28-oic acid (4), 3β-trans-feruloyloxy-2α-hydroxy-12,20(30)-ursadien-28-oic acid (5), and 3α-trans-feruloyloxy-2α-hydroxy-12,20(30)-ursadien-28-oic acid (6), along with eleven known triterpenoids (7-17), were isolated from the leaves of Diospyros digyna. Their chemical structures were elucidated by comprehensive analysis of UV, IR, HRESIMS, and NMR spectra. All the isolated compounds were evaluated for their PTP1B inhibitory activity. 3β-O-trans-feruloyl-2α-hydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (13) showed the best inhibition activity with an IC50 value of 10.32 ± 1.21 μM. The molecular docking study found that the binding affinity of compound 13 for PTP1B was comparable to that of oleanolic acid (positive control).

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases constitute an important class of drug targets whose potential has been limited by the paucity of drug-like small-molecule inhibitors. We recently described a class of active-site-directed, moderately selective, and potent inhibitors of the low-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatase (LMW-PTP). Here, we report our extensive structure-based design and optimization effort that afforded inhibitors with vastly improved potency and specificity. The leading compound inhibits LMW-PTP potently and selectively (Ki = 1.2 nM, >8000-fold selectivity). Many compounds exhibit favorable drug-like properties, such as low molecular weight, weak cytochrome P450 inhibition, high metabolic stability, moderate to high cell permeability (Papp > 0.2 nm/s), and moderate to good oral bioavailability (% F from 23 to 50% in mice), and therefore can be used as in vivo chemical probes to further dissect the complex biological as well as pathophysiological roles of LMW-PTP and for the development of therapeutics targeting LMW-PTP.
