✦ Synopsis
The synthesis of a new 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reduc-----tase inhibitor starting from 4,4' -difluorobenzophenone is described. Mevinolin 1 and its congeners are potent inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-

## Abstract The indole (1) and chroman analogs (2) of mevinolin and their 6__S__ diastereomers 15c and 25d were synthesized in several steps starting with methyl (__R__)‐3‐[(tert‐butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]‐4‐formylbutyrate (12) and 2‐(indol‐3‐yl)ethanol (3) or 6‐methoxychroman‐4‐one (16), respectively
The synthesis of the B-hydroxy-6 -1actone moiety of an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor in its correct absolute configuration (94% ee) has been accomplished via a diastereoselective aldol reaction enolate of S(+)1,2,2-triphenylethylacetate, between aldehyde 4 and the magnesium Claisen condensation, direc
