Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) represents one of the key regulators of the homeostasis of lipid particles, including high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles. Epidemiological evidence correlates increased HDL and decreased LDL to coronary heart disease (CHD) risk reduction. This relationship is consistent with a clinical outcomes trial of a CETP inhibitor (anacetrapib) combined with standard of care (statin), which led to a 9% additional risk reduction compared to standard of care alone. We discuss here the discovery of MK-8262, a CETP inhibitor with the potential for being the best-in-class molecule. Novel in vitro and in vivo paradigms were integrated to drug discovery to guide optimization informed by a critical understanding of key clinical adverse effect profiles. We present preclinical and clinical evidence of MK-8262 safety and efficacy by means of HDL increase and LDL reduction as biomarkers for reduced CHD risk.

The kinetic β-silicon effects of various silyl groups including Me3Si, Me3SiMe2Si, (C6H5)Me2Si, (i-PrO)Me2Si, and (CH3OCH2)Me2Si were measured in kc solvolysis of two different benzylic systems of the types, ArCH(OCOCF3)CH2R (3: Ar=phenyl or 3,5-dichlorophenyl, R=silyl group) and C6H5CH(Cl)SiMe2R (4: R=silyl group).The relative β-silyl accelerations were 1.0:5.57:0.309 for R=Me3Si; Me3SiMe2Si, and (C6H5)Me2Si, respectively, for the system 3, and 1.0:7.65:0.502:0.289 for R=Me3Si, Me3SiMe2Si, (i-PrO)Me2Si, and (CH3OCH2)Me2Si, respectively, for the system 4.The variation of the β-silicon effect with γ-substituents was interpreted as reflecting changes in hyperconjugating abilities of β-C-Si and β-Si-Si ?-bonds mainly due to the inductive effect of the γ-substituent groups.

The solution and flash vacuum pyrolyses of β-(3,5-disubstituted-phenyl)ethanesulfonyl azides are reported.When R = Me, FVP results suggest that the substituents stabilize the intermediate leading to the 3,4-dihydro-2,1-benzothiazepine 2,2-dioxide (6a).A n
