Biphenylylquinuclidine compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof; wherein R<1> is hydrogen or hydroxy; R<2> is hydrogen; or R<1> and R<2> are joined together so that CR<1>-CR<2> is a double bond; and one or both ring A and ring B may be optionally unsubstituted or independently substituted by one or more substituents selected from halogeno, hydroxy, amino, nitro, cyano, carboxy, carbamoyl, (1-6C)alkyl, (1-6C)alkoxy, (1-6C)alkylamino, di-[(1-6C)alkyl]amino, N-[(1-6C)alkyl]carbamoyl, N,N-di-[(1-6C)alkyl]carbamoyl, (1-6C)alkoxycarbonyl, (1-6C)alkylthio, (1-6C)alkylsulphinyl, (1-6C)alkylsulphonyl and halogeno-(1-6C)alkyl; are inhibitors of squalene synthetase and are hence useful in treating diseases or medical conditions such as hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerosis and fungal diseases. Methods of using these compounds to treat such conditions, novel compounds, processes for making these compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are claimed. |
