ZUSAMMENFASSUNG
A series of 2,3,4,(5),6-substituted pyridines containing a hydroxyphosphinyl functionally have been prepared and were evaluated for their ability to inhibit the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase. Systematic substitution of both R1-R4 and X-Y led to compounds of type 3-6 with in vitro potency greater than that of mevinolin (Na salt).
