Abstract

In this study, novel condensed 1,4-dihydropyridines bearing cyclopentanone (1-21) or tetrahydrothiophene-1,1-dioxide ring (22-42) with various ester substituents were synthesized via a modified Hantzsch reaction and their calcium channel modulator activities were investigated on isolated rat ileum and rat thoracic aorta. The introduction of a cyclopentanone ring fused to the 1,4-dihydropyridine nucleus and methyl, ethyl and allyl moieties to the ester group led to more active calcium modulators.
