Diisopropyl 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate
Abstract
In the title compound, C28H32N2O7, the 1,4-dihydropyridine ring adopts a flattened boat conformation. The two benzene rings are approximately perpendicular to the dihydropyridine ring, forming dihedral angles of 84.29 (9) and 82.96 (9)° with the mean plane of the 1,4-dihydropyridine unit, whereas the ester groups are only slightly twisted relative to this plane, with dihedral angles of 10.6 (1) and 9.0 (1)°.
