ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for preparing a phosphonic acid ester having the structure ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is farnesyl or a derivative or analog thereof, and R.sup.2 is lower alkyl, by treating a farnesyl halide R.sup.1 Hal(Hal=Cl,Br,I) with an alkoxide of the structure ##STR2## wherein M is an alkali metal and R.sup.2c is lower alkyl. The resulting phosphonic acid ester is an intermediate in preparing a squalene synthetase inhibitor which is used for inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis.
