Abstract

See full text

Hydrogenation of the natural fermentation product, mevinolin, MK-803, results in the production of dihydro- and tetra-hydro derivatives and hydrogenation of the naturally occurring dihydromevinolin results in the formation of a tetrahydro derivative. These several products with the exception of cis-(4.alpha..beta., 8.alpha..beta.-)-tetrahydromevinolin are potent inhibitors of cholesterol biosynthesis.
