Abstract
Aliphatic analogs of 2, 8-dibenzylcyclooctanone which includes Ci5-Cia ketones have been investigated for hypocholesterolemic activity in rats. The position of the carbonyl group in the chain for maximum activity appears to be the 2 position. 2-Hexadecanone reduced serum cholesterol levels significantly without altering serum triglyceride levels. This drug was not estrogenic at effective doses which is in contrast to the cyclooctanones which possess this ...
