Abstract
Fifteen compounds derived from the 2( 3H)-benzothiazolone template with an acyl side-chain in position-6 were evaluated for their lipid-lowering action in mice. Among these compounds, 6-benzoyl-2( 3H)-benzothiazolone was found to be the most potent one both in mice models receiving a hypercholesterolemic diet ( for 15 days) or a standard diet ( for 21 days). 6-Benzoyl-2( 3H)-benzothiazolone compares favorably with fenofibrate, the standard drug, both in terms of HDL-C/Chol ( High Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol/Total Cholesterol) ratio and absence of liver hepatomegaly.
