“…1), (3R,4S)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-[(3S)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-hydroxypropyl]-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)azetidine-2-one is a selective cholesterol absorbtion inhibitor, which potently inhibits the absorption of biliary and dietary cholesterol (Van Heek et al, 1997) from the small intestine without affecting the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, triglyceride or bile acids. Clinical studies have shown that co-administration of ezetimibe with statins could provide significant reductions in both the low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and the total cholesterol with slight increase in the high-density lipoproteins (HDL) (Ballantyne et al, 2003;Davidson et al, 2002;Kerzner et al, 2003;Melani et al, 2003).…”

“…The structure of the compound is shown in Figure 5. Data obtained in bile duct cannulated rats shows that SCH-58235 is glucuronidated in the intestine and undergoes enterohepatic circulation, the glucuronide being a more efficient inhibitor of cholesterol absorption than the parent compound [20]. A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial compared the effect on serum lipids, with doses ranging from 0.25 -10 mg once daily with placebo in 243 hypercholesterolaemic subjects over a period of 12 weeks [21].…”

“…One can expect, therefore, that fluorine-containing b-lactams will serve as important and useful bioactive compounds for medicinal chemistry and chemical biology. For example, Ezetimibe, a blactam containing fluorine in the side chain, is the first of the selective cholesterol absorption inhibitors [11]. b-Lactams bearing a fluorine atom in the alpha position of the side chain have been intensively investigated as potential antibiotics [12][13][14][15][16][17].…”
