Abstract
Since the discovery by Redel and Cottet (21) that phenylacetic acid derivatives reduce plasma cholesterol levels in the rat and in man, a vast number of related compounds have been studied. Among phenolic ethers, arylcxy-isobutyric acids have received the most attention in recent years, particularly p-chlorophenoxy isobutyric acid (CPIB), first prepared by Galimberti and Defranceschi (6) and its ethyl ester, the biological properties of which were described by Thorp and Waring (25).
