Abstract
Hantzsch dihydropyridines were readily oxidized by nitric oxide to giv e corresponding pyridines in quantitative yields. This reaction system required no work-up procedure. In the presence of oxygen, it was poss ible to reduce nitric oxide to less than an euimolar amount. This is t he first reaction of nitric oxide itself that is practical for synthet ic use.
