Diethyl 4-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-methyl-6-phenyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate

In the title compound, C24H24ClNO4, the dihydropyridine ring adopts a flattened boat conformation. The plane of the pyridine ring subtends dihedral angles of 74.54 (6) and 85.69 (5)° with those of the phenyl and chlorophenyl rings, respectively. The dihedral angle between the planes of the chlorophenyl and phenyl rings is 72.20 (7)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked into [100]C(6) chains by N—H...O hydrogen bonds. The chains are cross-linked by weak C—H...O interactions to generate a three-dimensional network.
