A new six intraperitoneal injections insulin-mimetic vanadyl(IV) compounds [(VO)(FA)(AA
n
)] (where n = 1-6: AA
1
= isoleucine, AA
2
= threonine, AA
3
= proline, AA
4
= phenylalanine, AA
5
= lysine, and AA
6
= glutamine) were synthesized by the chemical reactions between folic acid (FA), VOSO
4
, and amino acids (AA
n
) with equal molar ratio 1:1:1 in neutralized media. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and estimation of vanadyl(IV) metal ions. The thermal stability behavior of these complexes was studied by TG-DTG-DTA analyses. The structures of these complexes were elucidated by spectroscopic methods like infrared, electron spin resonance (ESR), and solid reflectance spectroscopes. The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) study suggested the crystalline nature of the complexes. Magnetic moments and electronic spectra revealed the square-pyramid geometrical structure of the complexes. The conductivity results refereed that all synthesized vanadyl(IV) complexes were of a non-electrolyte behavior. The infrared spectra assignments of these complexes revealed that the
FAH
2
and AA
n
chelates act as a bidentate ligation. The chelation towards vanadyl (IV) ions existed via deprotonation of one of the carboxylic groups of
FAH
2
drug ligand, and so amino acids act as bidentate ligands via N-amino and O-carboxylate groups. Both scanning and transmission electron microscope (
SEM
and TEM) techniques were used to investigate the surface morphology. The main task of this research is the aim of designing a new insulin alternative antidiabetic drug agent. The antidiabetic efficiency of these complexes was evaluated in streptozotocin-induced diabetic male albino rats. Liver and kidney functions, insulin and blood glucose levels, lipid profile, and superoxide dismutase antioxidant (SOD) are verified identifiers for the efficiency of VO(IV)/FA/AA
n
system compounds as antidiabetic drug agents.
