Synthesis and photodegradation studies of analogues of muscle relaxant 1,4-dihydropyridine compounds by Gündüz Miyase Gözde, Ragno Gaetano, Şimşek Rahime, De Luca Michele, Şafak Cihat, Grande Fedora, El-Khouly Ahmed, İşli Fatma, Yildirim Şeniz, Öztürk Fincan Gökçe Sevim, Ioele Giuseppina

“…Formation of the oxidized pyridine derivative was observed for all the studied DHPs, except for one compound, which showed very fast degradation and formation of a second photo-product. Pharmacological tests on the molecules showed a good muscle relaxing effect, with a mechanism similar to that of nifedipine, however, proving to be more stable to light.…”
