Synthesis of 4-alkyl-1, 4-dihydropyridines and related compounds ; Synthesis and thermolysis of β-cyclopropyl-⍺, β-unsaturated ketones and related compounds

This thesis is composed of three separate parts. Part I describes the synthesis of a series of 1-carbomethoxy-4-alkyl(aryl)-1,4-dihydro-pyridines by the reaction of pyridine with lithium phenylthio(alkyl or aryl)cuprate reagents in the presence of methyl chloroformate.
