o-Nitrophenyl group of nifedipine has been replaced with 2-alkylthio-1-phenylmethyl-5-imidazolyl substituent. Starting from dihydroxyacetone and phenylmethylamine hydrochloride, 2-alkythio-1-phenylmethyl-5-formylimidazole 3 is first synthesized and subsequently used in synthesizing symmetrical (5a-f) and asymmetrical (6a,b) dihydropyridines.
