Abstract:
A fast and highly efficient copper-catalyzed multicomponent synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines under microwave irradiation is described. The protocol utilizes mild reaction conditions with low catalytic loading, leading to high yields. This methodology provides us with biologically active 1,4-dihydropyridine library for medicinal chemistry applications.
