“…Compounds containing the 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP) ring exhibit calcium-antagonistic activity and are prescribed as drugs in the treatment of a variety of cardiovascular diseases, such as angina and hypertension (Triggle et al, 1989). The present report of the title compound, (I), is part of a series of structural investigations of 1,4-DHP derivatives to determine the conformational changes due to different substituents at the 3-, 4-and 5-positions Sundar, Parthasarathi, Narang et al, 2006;Sundar, Parthasarathi, Jain et al, 2006).
