Abstract
Chiral ,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylates and 1,4-dihy dro-2, 1,6-trimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate have been obtained in 8 0-99%ee by lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of bis(acyloxymethyl) dihydro-3 ,5-pyridinedicarboxylate in an H2O/organic solvent system. These chira l dihydropyridines were readily converted into chiral drugs, such as n icardipine, felodipine and PCA 4248.
