Abstract

Nitriles of 4-aryl-2-carbamoylmethylthio-5-ethoxycarbonyl-6-hydroxy-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxylic acids were obtained by the alkylation of 1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-2-thiolate with iodoacetamide or by a three-component synthesis by condensing 2-arylmethylene-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with 2-cyanothioacetamide in the presence of piperidine with subsequent reaction with iodoacetamide. Nitriles of 4-aryl-2-carbamoylmethylthio-5-ethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acids were obtained by the dehydration of 6-hydroxy-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridines or with a one-reactor three-component system from 2-cyano-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)thioacrylamide, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, and iodoacetamide. The electrochemical oxidation of the synthesized nitriles was investigated and it was established that derivatives of 1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine as a rule are oxidized readily to the corresponding 1,4-dihydropyridines. A comparative analysis has been carried out of the ability of hydrogenated pyridines to be oxidized electrochemically depending on the electron-withdrawing properties of the substituents in the heterocycle.
