Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel derivative of Compound 1 selectively substituted with fluorine and/or deuterium and optionally further substituted with deuterium and 13C elsewhere in the molecule. The compounds of this invention are cholesterol esterase transfer protein inhibitors and possess unique biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic properties compared to Compound 1. They may also be used to accurately determine the concentration of Compound 1 in biological fluids and tissues and to determine metabolic patterns of Compound 1 and its isotopologues. The invention further provides compositions comprising these compounds and methods of treating diseases and conditions that are responsive to inhibition of cholesterol esterase transfer protein, alone and in combination with additional agents.
