Abstract
Optically active 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives represented by general formula (I), process for preparing compounds (Ic) (in general formula (I) , R.sup.1 is a lower alkyl group), process for preparing compounds represented by general formula (II) by hydrolyzing the compounds (Ic) under acidic conditions, process for preparing compounds represented by general formula (II) by solvolysis, under basic conditions, of compounds represented by general formula (III); ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is H, a lower alkyl group, a cyanoethyl group, a lower alkanoylaminoethyl group, or a lower dialkylaminoethyl group; R.sup.2 is a 2-tetrahydropyranyl group or a lower alkyloxymethyl group; R.sup.3 is a cyano group, a lower dialkylamino group or a lower alkanoylamino group; and R.sup.4 is a lower alkyl group. The compounds of general formula (I) and (II) are intermediate compounds for preparing optically active 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives which are useful as medicines for circulatory organs. The compounds can be produced efficiently by the process of the present invention.
