Reaction Steps

A solution of 2,6-dimethyl-3-carbomethoxy-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-5-(3-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)phenoxy]propoxycarbonyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine (125 g, 0.252 moles) in acetone (700 mL) is stirred at reflux for 8 hours with K2CO3 (48 g, 0.35 mol) and n-bromopropane (61.5 g, 0.5 mol). After evaporation of the solvent, the crude product is purified by flash chromatography (solvent=93:7 CH2Cl2 :acetone) to yield 2,6-dimethyl-3-methoxycarbonyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-5-(3-[4-(2-propoxyethyl)phenoxy]propoxycarbonyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine as an oil.
