Abstract: A process for the production of 1-(4-3(R)-[3(S)-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-hydroxypropyl]-4(S)-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-azetidinone (ezetimibe) according to the following reaction scheme: (I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), (VI), (VII), (VIII), (IX), (X), (XI) where the substances of the general Formulas II, IV, VI, VIII, IX, X and XI are new, Formula III is a non-isolated intermediate, R1, R2 and R3 are represented by the compounds of Formulas Va-Vd, (Va), (Vb), (Vc), (Vd) and R4 is a silyl, e.g., tert-butyl-dimethyl-silyl, tert-butyl-diphenyl-silyl group.

Abstract: An industrially easily realizable and economical process comprising only few steps, and built on new intermediates for the production of 1-(4-3(R)-[3(S)-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-hydroxypropyl]-4(S)-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-azetidinone (ezetimibe) according to the reaction scheme described herein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a proccss for preparing cis-(1S)-N-methyl-4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphtalenami ne and its acid addition salts wherein N-methyl-[4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-naphtalene-1-en]-amine -N-oxide is hydrogenated in an inert solvent in the presence of a catalyst, then the resulting mixture is treated with alcanolic solution of a mineral acid, the resulting cis-racemic acid addition salt is converted to the free base by known methods, resolved and the resulting cis-(+)-base of formula (II) is converted to an acid addition salt. N-methyl-[4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-naphtalene-1-en]amine- N-oxide is also disclosed.
