Abstract

Efficient and rapid oxidation of Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine with tetrabutylammonium peroxomonosulfate (TBAO) is reported. The Mn(salophen)/monopersulfate catalytic system efficiently converts 1,4-dihydropyridines (DHPs) to their corresponding pyridine derivatives under mechanical stirring and microwave irradiation in CH2Cl2. The ability of various Schiff base complexes to oxidize DHPs was also investigated. The results showed that in the presence of manganese Schiff complex, no by-product was obtained.
