`This is a division, of application Ser. No. 07/631,092,
`filed on Dec. 19, 1990, which is a continuation of 07/233,
`752, filed Aug. 19, 1988.
`The present invention relates to novel mevalonolactones
`having a quinoline ring, processes for their production,
`pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their
`pharmaceutical uses particularly as anti-hyperlipidemic,
`hypolipoproteinemic and anti-atherosclerotic agents, and
`intermediates useful for their production and processes for
`the production of such intermediates.
`Some fermentation metabolic products such as
`compactine, CS-514, Mevinolin or semi-synthetic deriva-
`tives or fully synthetic derivatives thereof are known to be
`inhibitors against HMG-CoA reductase which is a rate
`limiting enzyme for cholesterol biosynthesis. (A. Endo J.
`Med Chem., 28(4) 401 (1985))
`CS-514 and Mevinolin have been clinically proved to be
`potentially useful anti-hyperlipoproteinemic agents, and
`they are considered to be effective for curing or preventing
`diseases of coronary artery sclerosis or atherosclerosis.
`(IXth Int. Symp. Drugs Affect. Lipid Metab, 1986, p30,
`p31, p66)
`to fully synthetic derivatives,
`However, with respect
`particularly hetero aromatic derivatives of inhibitors against
`HMG—COA reductase, limited information is disclosed in the
`following literatures:
`WPI ACC NO. 84-158675, 86-028274, 86-098816,
`86-332070, 87-124519, 87—220987, 88-07781, 88-008460,
`88-091798 and 88-112505.
`The present inventors have found that mevalonolactone
`derivatives having a quinoline ring, the corresponding dihy-
`droxy carboxylic acids and salts and esters thereof have high
`inhibitory activities against cholesterol biosynthesis wherein
`HMG-CoA reductase acts as a rate limiting enzyme. The
`present invention has been accomplished on the basis of this
`discovery.

`invention are represented by the following formula 1:

`R21 and R22 independently represent C1,4 lower alkyl such
`as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl or n-butyl.
`,
`Step A represents a reduction reaction of the ester to a
`primary alcohol. Such reduction reaction can be conducted
`by using various metal hydrides, preferably diisobutylalu-
`minium hydride, in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran or
`toluene at a temperature of from —20° to 20° C., preferably
`from —-10° to 10° C.
`
`Step B represents an oxidation reaction of the primary
`alcohol to an aldehyde, which can be conducted by using
`various oxidizing agents. Preferably, the reaction can be
`conducted by using pyridinium chlorochromate in methyl-
`ene chloride at a temperature of from 0° to 25 ° C., or by
`using oxalyl chloride, dimethyl sulfoxide and a tertiary
`amine such as triethylamine (Swern oxidation), or by using
`a sulfur trioxide pyridine complex.
`Step C represents a synthesis of a 3-ethoxy-1-hydroxy-
`2-propene derivative, which can be prepared by reacting a
`compound V to lithium compound which has been prelimi-
`narily formed by treating cis-1-ethoxy-2—(tri-n-butylstanny1)
`ethylene with butyl lithium in tetrahydrofuran.
`As the reaction temperature, it is preferred to employ a
`low temperature at a level of from —60° to —78° C.
`Step D represents a synthesis of an enal by acidic hydroly-
`sis. As the acid catalyst, it is preferred to employ p—toluene
`sulfonic acid, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid, and the
`reaction may be conducted in a solvent mixture of water and
`tetrahydrofuran or ethanol at a temperature of from 10° to
`25° C. The 3-ethoxy-1-hydroxy-2-propene derivative
`obtained in Step C can be used in Step D without purification
`i.e. by simply removing tetra-n-butyl tin formed simulta-
`neously.
`Step E represents a double anion condensation reaction
`between the enal III and an acetoacetate. Such condensation
`reaction is preferably conducted by using sodium hydride
`and n-butyl lithium as the base in tetrahydrofuran at a
`temperature of from —80° to 0" C., preferably from —30° to
`-10° C.
`
`Step F represents a reduction reaction of the carbonyl
`group, which can be conudcted by using a metal hydride,
`preferably sodium borohydride in ethanol at a temperature
`of from —10° to 25° 0, preferably from —10° to 5° C.
`Further, the reduction reaction may be conducted by using
`zinc borohydride in dry ethyl ether or dry tetrahydrofuran at
`a temperature of —100° to 25° C., preferably from —80° to
`—50° C.
`
`Step G is a step for hydrolyzing the ester. The hydrolysis
`can be conducted by using an equimolar amount of a base,
`preferably potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide, in a
`solvent mixture of water and methanol or ethanol at a
`temperature of from 10° to 25° C. The free acid hereby
`obtained may be converted to a salt with a suitable base.
`Step H is a step for forming a mevalonolactone by the
`dehydration reaction of the free hydroxy acid I-2. The
`dehydration reaction can be conducted in benzene or toluene
`under reflux while removing the resulting water or by adding
`a suitable dehydrating agent such as molecular sieve.
`Further, the dehydration reaction may be conducted in dry
`methylene chloride by using a lactone-forming agent such as
`carbodiimide, preferably a water soluble carbodiimide such
`as N-cyclohexyl-N'-[2'-(methylmorpholinium)ethy1]
`carbodiimide p-toluene sulfonate at a temperature of from
`10° to 35 ° C., preferably from 20° to 25° C.
`Step J represents a reaction for hydrogenating the double
`bond connecting the mevalonolactone moiety and the quino-
`line ring. This hydrogenation reaction can be conducted by
`using a catalytic amount of palladium—carbon or rhodium—

`carbon in a solvent such as methanol, ethanol, tetrahydro—
`furan or acetonitrile at a temperature of from 0° to 50° C.,
`preferably from 10° to 25° C.
`Step K represents a reaction for the synthesis of an
`a,[3-unsaturated carboxylic acid ester, whereby a trans-form
`0t,B-unsaturated carboxylic acid ester can be obtained by a
`so-called Homer-Wittig reaction by using an alkoxycarbo-
`nylmethyl phosphonate. The reaction is conducted by using
`sodium hydride or potassium t-butoxide as the base in dry
`tetrahydrofuran at a temperature of from —30° to 0° C.,
`preferably from —-20° to ~15° C.
`Step L represents a reduction reaction of the (1,6-
`unsaturated carboxylic acid ester to an ally] alcohol. This
`reduction reaction can be conducted by using various metal
`hydrides, preferably diisobutylaluminiumhydride, in a sol-
`vent such as dry tetrahydrofuran or toluene at a temperature
`of from ~10" to 10° C., preferably fi'om -10° to 0° C.
`Step M represents an oxidation reaction of the allyl
`alcohol to an enal. This oxidation reaction can be conducted
`by using various oxidizing agents, particularly active man-
`ganese dioxide,
`in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran,
`acetone, ethyl ether or ethyl acetate at a temperatrue of from
`0° to 100° C., preferably from 15° to 50° C.
`Step N represents a reaction for the synthesis of an
`ot,B-unsaturated ketone by the selective oxidation of the
`dihydroxy carboxylic acid ester. This reaction can be con-
`ducted by using activated manganese dioxide in a solvent
`such as ethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, benzene or toluene at a
`temperature of from 20° to 80° C., preferably from 40° to
`80° C.
