The Bohlmann-Rahtz pyridine synthesis and the Hantzsch dihydropyridine synthesis can be carried out in a microwave flow reactor or using a conductive heating flow platform for the continuous processing of material. In the Bohlmann-Rahtz reaction, the use of a Brønsted acid catalyst allows Michael addition and cyclodehydration to be carried out in a single step without isolation of intermediates...

Axially enantioselective binuclear gold(I) catalysts fly as swallowtail butterflies around a mechanical hand providing chiral environment. The gold microchip on the symbolizes crucial role of catalysis in alkyne activation. Using gold-catalyzed condensation amine and diyne-ene, first example 1,2-dihydropyridine synthesis through formal [3+2+1] fashion is reported by Xin Hong, Xiaodong Shi et al...

Electrocyclic reaction product of 1-(methoxycarbonyl)-1,2-dihydropyridine was stereospecifically converted by RuO(4) oxidation into azetidine-cis-2,3-dicarboxylic acid.

Aim: 1,4-dihydropyridine derivative, 1-(3-phenyl propyl)-4-(2-(2-hydroxybenzylidene) hydrazone)-1,4-dihydropyridine (abbreviated as DHP) was synthesized potential agent for Alzheimer’s disease which is a progressive neurodegenerative brain disorder affecting millions of elderly people. With this study, the electrochemical properties DHP were investigated and its interaction with DNA analyzed by...

Ca2+ channels are voltage-gated ion present in the membrane of most excitable cells. The nomenclature for Ca2+channels was proposed by [131] and approved NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on [72]. Most form hetero-oligomeric complexes. α1 subunit is pore-forming provides binding site(s) practically all agonists antagonists. 10 cloned α1-subunits can be grouped into three families: (1) high-voltage activat...

Wound healing is a natural response to restore the injured tissue to normal. Wound healing is also complicated process involving different cellular, molecular and biochemical mechanisms and various types of cytokines and growth factors. Calcium channel blockers belong to cardiovascular medicine and administrated to treatment of hypertension, angina and cardiac arrhythmia because of vasodilatory...

Under mechanical milling conditions, direct reductive benzylizations of malononitrile and 4-methylaniline by aromatic aldehydes were achieved using a Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine as the reductant.

Cardiac L-type Ca2+ channels are multisubunit complexes composed of alpha 1C, alpha 2 delta, and beta 2 subunits. We tested the roles of these subunits in forming a functional complex by characterizing the effects of subunit composition on dihydropyridine binding, its allosteric regulation, and the ability of dihydropyridines to inhibit channel activity. Transfection of COS.M6 cells with cardia...
