Claim 2
Independent Claim 220 words
A method of treating atherosclerosis, reducing the cholesterol ester content of the arterial wall, inhibiting atherosclerotic lesion development and/or treating hyperlipidemia in a mammal in need of such treatment which comprises administering to said mammal an effective amount of a compound of the formula: ##STR6## wherein X represents at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkenyl, C 1 -C 4 alkynyl, hydroxy, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy, phenoxy, mercapto, C 1 -C 4 alkylthio, amino, C 1 -C 4 alkylamino, di-(C 2 -C 4 alkyl)amino, halo, trihalomethyl, C 1 -C 4 alkanoyl, benzoyl, C 1 -C 4 alkanamido, C 1 -C 4 alkanesulfonyl, C 1 -C 4 alkanesulfinyl, benzenesulfonyl, toluenesulfonyl, nitro, cyano, carboxy, C 1 -C 4 carboalkoxy, carbamoyl, sulfamyl, methylenedioxy, phenyl, ortho-phenylene tolyl, benzyl, halobenzyl, methylbenzyl and the group ##STR7## Y is selected from the group consisting of oxygen and sulfur, and R is selected from the group consisting of C 7 -C 14 aralkyl, and C 7 -C 14 aralkyl in which an aromatic ring bears at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of C 1 -C 10 alkyl, C 1 -C 10 alkoxy, phenoxy, benzyloxy, methylenedioxy, C 1 -C 4 alkylthio, phenyl, halo, trihalomethyl, adamantyl, C 1 -C 4 carboalkoxy and nitro.
