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. Compounds 1 and 2 inhibited moderately the HMG‐CoA reductase. The diastereomers 15c and 25d were shown to be inactive.
