Abstract

The 2-aryl-substituted pyridines are prepared by reacting pyridylaldehydes with organometallic compounds and then selectively reducing the products. The 2-aryl-substituted pyridines are suitable as active compounds in medicaments, in particular in medicaments for the treatment of arteriosclerosis.
