Diethylamine → HCID 20533149, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-chloroethyl 2-methyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-5-ethoxycarbonyl-6-diethoxymethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylate (2.0 g), diethylamine (1.75 g) and sodium iodide (60.3 mg) in n-propylalcohol (4 ml) was refluxed for 17 hours. After removal of the solvent from the reaction mixture, water and ethyl acetate were added to the residue. The ethyl acetate layer was washed twice with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated to give a brown oil (2.46 g) of 2-(N,N-diethylamino)ethyl 2-methyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-5-ethoxycarbonyl-6-diethoxymethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylate, which was identified by converting to the corresponding 6-formyl compound (oil) and then to the corresponding 6-cyano compound, m.p. 150° to 152° C.
