PROCESS FOR PRODUCING INTERMEDIARY COMPOUNDS FOR THE PURPOSE OR OBTAINING TETRAZOLE DERIVATIVES REDUCING PATHOLOGICALLY HIGH CHOLESTERIN LEVEL OF BLOOD

摘要

This invention provides novel tetrazole intermediates of the formula wherein R1 and R4 each are independently hydrogen, halogen, C1-4 alkyl, C1-4 alkoxy or trifluoromethyl; R2,R3,R5 and R6 each are independently hydrogen, halogen, C1-4 alkyl or C1-4 alkoxy; B is hydrogen, C1-4 alkoxycarbonyl, CH2Y or CH2Z; Y is hydrogen, hydroxyl or X; Z is X is bromo, chloro or iodo; R10 is C1-4 alkyl; and R11 is phenyl which is unsubstituted or substituted by one or two C1-4 alkyl or chloro substituents. and processes thereof which are useful for the preparation of antihypercholesterolemic agents.
