Procedure

A new, technologically easily feasible process for the preparation of 2-(N-benzyl-N-methylamino)ethyl methyl 2,6-dimethyl-4(m-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, comprising a partrial hydrolysis of dimethyl 2,6-dimethyl-4-(m-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate in an inert organic solvent at a temperature between room temperature and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture with an aqueous solution of alkali hydroxide and the reaction of the obtained 3-methoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-4-(m-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-5-carboxylic acid either with N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-benzyl-methylamine in the presence or absence of an organic solvent in the presence of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide at a temperature of between 25° and 120° C. or with N-(2-haloethyl)-N-benzyl-methylamine in the presence of an inert organic solvent and of a proton acceptor at a temperature of between 25° and 140° C., to yield the title compound, which can be, if desired, converted to its hydrochloride salt. The hydrochloride salt is known under the generic name "nicardipine hydrochloride" and is used as a valuable therapeutic in the therapy of cerebral insufficiency.
