Electrochemical reduction of 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl- and 3,5-diacetyl-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyrdine, hexahydroquinol-5-one, and hexahydroisoquinol-8-one, which contain dihydropyridine moieties, produces free radicals detectable by EPR only for the most easily reduced hexahydroisoquinol-8-ones. The hyperfine structure of the EPR spectra is determined and is consistent with that for the 4,5-dihydropyridine moiety.
