Reaction Steps

1.35 g (25 mmol) of sodium methoxide was dissolved in 20 ml of anhydrous methanol. To this solution was added, with ice-cooled, 2.02 g (5 mmols) of 1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-5-(4-pyridyl)pyridine-3-carboxylate. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 hours and neutralized with acetic acid. To this reaction mixture was added 400 ml of water. Crystals were separated from the reaction mixture, which were collected, washed with water and dried under reduced pressure, whereby the captioned compound was obtained. The yield was 1.71 g (98%).
