Abstract
The synthesis and structure-activity relationships of a series of malo nester amide ACAT inhibitors are described. One of these compounds, 4s , was shown to be a potent inhibitor of both the intestinal and arteri al enzymes, bioactive upon oral dosing (ex vivo bioassay) and efficaci ous in a clinically relevant rodent model of preestablished hyperchole sterolemia.
