Inhibitors of Acyl-CoA:Cholesterol O-acyltransferase (ACAT) as hypocholesterolemic agents: Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of novel series of sulfonamides, acylphosphonamides and acylphosphoramidates

Sulfoacetic acid, phosphoramidate, and phosphoramide analogs of the ACAT inhibitors, CI-999 and CI-1011 were synthesized. The structure-activity relationships of these compounds as ACAT inhibitors are described.
