Abstract :
1,4-Dihydropyridine synthesis has been carried out using cadmium chloride as a catalyst. This protocol is applicable to a variety of aldehydes with β-ketoester and ammonium acetate to afford the corresponding Hantzsch pyridines in excellent yields. This multicomponent condensation took place very smoothly in acetonitrile reflux.
