Abstract: Compounds of the formula ##STR1## in which A is lower alkyl, or a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, thienyl, furyl, indolyl or thiaindolyl radical, R, X.sub.4 and X.sub.5 are hydrogen or lower alkyl, Y is hydrogen, hydroxy, etherified hydroxy, substituted amino, or N-attached heterocyclyl, X.sub.0 is O or OCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O, R' represents hydrogen, lower alkyl or acetyl; and acid-addition salts thereof, are novel and useful in pharmacy as hypolipaemiant, hypocholosterolaemiant and cholagogic agents or in the preparation of such agents.

Abstract: This invention is concerned with esters of p-carbonylphenoxy-isobutyric acids of the general formulae: ##STR1## wherein R is a phenyl group substituted by one or two halogen atoms;R' is H, CH.sub.3, C.sub.6 H.sub.5, SCH.sub.3, OCH.sub.3, or, SO.sub.2 CH.sub.3 ;R" is CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5 ;Y is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, phenoxy, phenoxy substituted by one or two halogen atoms, or, OCH.sub.2 O--CO--C(CH.sub.3).sub.3 ;Z is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, phenyl or R;NR.sub.1 R.sub.2 is N(CH.sub.3).sub.2 N(C.sub.2 H.sub.5).sub.2, morpholino, piperidino, hexamethylenimino, pyrrolidino.This invention is also concerned with acid addition salts obtained from formula Ia compounds with acids.Compounds of formulae I and Ia are useful as hypocholesterolemiant and hypolipidemiant agents.
