Dihydropyridine is a chemical compound consisting of a six-membered unsaturated ring with one nitrogen atom. It forms the basic structure of the dihydropyridines , which are used in medicine as calcium channel blockers in arterial hypertension . Its unsaturated analogue is pyridine .

presentation

The reduction of pyridine using lithium aluminum hydride gives a mixture of 1,4-dihydropyridine, 1,2-dihydropyridine and 2,5-dihydropyridine . Pure 1,4-dihydropyridine is formed from pyridine in the presence of organic magnesium and zinc complexes.

The dihydropyridine synthesis according to Arthur Hantzsch is used to prepare more highly substituted pyridines .

Biological importance

Dihydropyridine derivatives (e.g. the lead substance nifedipine , amlodipine , isradipine , nitrendipine , nimodipine or felodipine ) can block the voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel , i.e. act as antagonists. Before the exact function of this channel was explained, it was therefore called the dihydropyridine receptor .
