2,6-Dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid 3-methyl 5-(2'-phenylsulfinyl) ethyl ester (10) or 2,6-Dimethyl-4-(2' or 3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid 3-alkyl 5-(2-methylsulfonyl) ethyl ester (14a, b, c) were hydrolyzed by treatment with NaOH in aqueous EtOH solution to give 2,6-Dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid monomethyl ester (4b), 2,6-Dimethyl-4-(2'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid monomethyl ester (4c) and 2,6-Dimethyl-4-(2'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid monoisopropyl ester (4d) in 80 -90% yield. By the same procedure, 2,6-Dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid 3,5-bis (2'-methylsulfonyl) ethyl ester (15) gave 2,6-Dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid (4e) in 96% yield.

When 2,6-Dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid 3-mono methyl ester(3) was reacted with dimethyl methylene ammonium chloride (5a) and $K_2CO_3$ in DMF, 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-(N,N-dimethylamino)methyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (6a) was obtained in 41% yield. As the same procedure with compound (3) and the other dialkylaminomethylating reagents (5b, c, d, e), 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-(N,N-diethylamino)methyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methylester(6b), 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-(1'-pyrrolidinyl)methyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (6c), 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-(1'-piperidinyl)methyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (6d) and 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-(1'-morpholinyl)methyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (6e) were obtained in 28%, 49%, 48% and 18% yield respectively.

2,6-Dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1) was formylated to 2,6-dimethy-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-formyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (2) in 76% yield. At the elevated temperature, 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid 3-monomethyl ester (3) was also converted into compound 2 in 46% yield. The compound 2 was reduced to 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-hydroxymethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (4) in 91% yield. Compound 2 was reacted with triethyl phosphonoacetate to give 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3'-nitrophenyl)-5-(2-ethoxycarbonyl ethenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (5) in 50% yield. Reaction between compound 2 and amines (methyl amine, ethylamine, methoxylamine, hydroxyl amine, phenyl hydrazine and 1-amino-4-methyl piperazine) gave six schiff bases 7a, 7b, 7c, 7e, 7f in 81%, 91%, 82%, 81%, 50% and 84% yield, respectively.
