In the reduction of ketones with NADH mimics, (S(S))-1-substituted 3-(p-tolylsulfinyl)-1,4-dihydropyridines 1, the stereospecific transfer of one of the C-4 hydrogens, which is syn to the S-O bond, was experimentally revealed to be involved by employing the 2-methyl derivative 2 and the 4-deuterated derivatives 3a and 3b. The transition state model of this reaction was also proposed by consideration of the results obtained.
