Reaction Steps

To a slurry of sodium hydride (2.6 g g., 55 mmole, 50:50 oil dispersion) in dry, distilled DMF (50 mL) under nitrogen atmosphere was added a solution of diethyl 1,4-dihydro-4-(2-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridine-dicarboxylate (19.9 g., 50 mmole) in DMF (125 mL). After hydrogen bubbling ceased, the reaction mixture was warmed in a water bath for 1/2 hour, and a toluene (200 mL) solution of N-(2-chloroethyl)-morpholine (8.1 g., 60 mmole) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred at 110°-115° for 4 hours.
