First Claim
1. A phenyl-alkane-carboxylic acid of the formula ##STR14## wherein A is an aryl, aralkyl or arylvinyl radical optionally substituted by hydroxy, halogen, trifluoromethyl, alkyl, alkylthio, alkoxy, alkenyloxy, alkoxyalkoxy, alkyl-substituted amino, aryloxy or alkoxy-substituted aryloxy, or is an aryloxyalkyl or arylthioalkyl radical, or a thienyl or quinolyl radical optionally substituted by halogen, or alkyl or alkoxy containing up to 5 carbon atoms, any aryl moiety of A containing from 6 to 10 carbon atoms and any alkyl, alkoxy or alkenyloxy moiety of A containing 2 5 carbon atoms,Y is an unbranched or branched lower alkylene radical containing up to 3 carbon atoms,X is a straight or branched, saturated or unsaturated divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon radical containing 2 to 8 carbon atoms, there being at least 2 carbon atoms between the benzene ring and the carboxyl group, andR is a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl radical containing up to 5 carbon atoms,or a physiologically compatible salt, ester or amide thereof.

Abstract
Phenyl-alkane-carboxylic acids of the formula ##STR1## wherein A is an aryl, aralkyl or arylvinyl radical optionally substituted by hydroxy, halogen, trifluoromethyl, alkyl, alkylthio, alkoxy, alkenyloxy, alkoxyalkoxy, alkyl-substituted amino, aryloxy or alkoxy-substituted aryloxy, or is an aryloxyalkyl or arylthioalkyl radical, or a heterocyclic ring system optionally substituted by halogen, alkyl or alkoxy,
Y is a valency bond or an unbranched or branched lower alkylene radical containing up to 3 carbon atoms,
X is a straight or branched, saturated or unsaturated divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon radical containing 2 to 8 carbon atoms, there being at least 2 carbon atoms between the benzene ring and the carboxyl group, and
R is a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl radical, as well as physiologically compatible salts, esters and amides thereof, exhibit hypoglycaemic and hypolipidaemic activity.
