Abstract: Mono-lysine salts of triazole compounds having a secondary or tertiary hydroxy group are provided. More particularly, the new water-soluble triazole antifungal mono-lysine salt compounds, or solvates thereof, are provided having the general formula I: wherein A in formula I represents the non-hydroxy portion of a triazole antifungal compound of the type containing a secondary or tertiary hydroxyl group. R and R1 in formula I can each be a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having one to six carbon atoms. The novel water-soluble azole compounds are useful for the treatment of fungal infections and can be administered orally, topically and parenterally.

Abstract: A novel, overall process for the preparation of a compound of the formula I: ##STR1## where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each independently hydrogen, an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group or, taken together with the carbon atom to which they are attached, form a cycloalkyl group; andR.sup.3 is hydrogen, an alkyl group, or an aryl group, or salts thereof, useful as intermediates in the preparation of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors; novel methods within the overall process; and novel intermediates produced by those methods.

Abstract: A method is provided for preparing homochiral maleimide intermediates of the structure ##STR1## wherein R.sup.7, R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 are as defined herein by reacting a homochiral amine of the structure ##STR2## with maleic anhydride and a silylating agent. The maleimide intermediate is used in the enantio-selective preparation of thromboxane A.sub.2 receptor antagonists.
