Sugar-substituted 2-azetidinone cholesterol absorption inhibitors: Enhanced potency by modification of the sugar
摘要:
A glucuronide conjugate of the potent 2-azetidinone cholesterol absorption inhibitor Sch 58235 was synthesized to confirm the structure of a metabolite isolated from in vivo sources. A series of 2-azetidinone glycosides was prepared via Schmidt trichloroimidate methodology. Enhanced cholesterol absorption inhibition was achieved by modification of the sugar moiety.
