Abstract
(Arylamino)methylsilane derivatives 3 have been prepared and identifie d as potent inhibitors of human LDL oxidation mediated by copper(II). Combination of this property with the structural requirement of squale ne epoxidase inhibitors led to the design and synthesis of the (arylam ino)methylsilane derivative 4 which was characterised as the first pot ent, orally active squalene epoxidase inhibitor with antioxidant prope rties.
