The invention relates to substituted aryl and heteroaryl (R)-Chiral Halogenated 1-Substitutedamino-(n+1)-Alkanol compounds useful as inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP; plasma lipid transfer protein-I) and compounds, compositions and methods for treating atherosclerosis and other coronary artery diseases. Novel high yield, stereoselective processes for the preparation of the chiral substituted alkanol compounds from chiral and achiral intermediates are described.

(R)-chiral halogenated substituted fused heterocyclic amino compounds useful for inhibiting cholesterol ester transfer protein activity

This invention is directed generally to proteinase (also known as 'protease') inhibitors, and, more particularly, to piperidinyl- and piperazinyl-sulfonylmethyl hydroxamic acids that, inter alia, inhibit matrix metalloproteinase (also known as 'matrix metalloprotease' or &#x201c;MMP&#x201d;) activity and/or aggrecanase activity. Such hydroxamic acids generally correspond in structure to the following formula: (wherein A, A, Y, E, E, E, and Rare as defined in this specification), and further include salts of such compounds. This invention also is directed to compositions of such hydroxamic acids, intermediates for the syntheses of such hydroxamic acids, methods for making such hydroxamic acids, and methods for treating conditions (particularly pathological conditions) associated with MMP activity and/or aggrecanase activity.

Piperidinyl- and piperazinyl-sulfonylmethyl hydroxamic acids and their use as protease inhibitors

This invention is directed to aromatic sulfone hydroxamic acids (including hydroxamates) and salts thereof that, inter alia, inhibit matrix metalloproteinase (also known as 'matrix metalloprotease' or 'MMP') activity and/or aggrecanase activity. This invention also is directed to a prevention or treatment method that comprises administering such a compound or salt in an MMP-inhibiting and/or aggrecanase-inhibiting effective amount to an animal, particularly a mammal having (or disposed to having) a pathological condition associated with MMP and/or aggrecanase activity.
