Abstract
Irradiaton of nifedipine in methylene chloride at 366 nm yielded 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-dicarbomethoxy-4-(2'-nitrosophen yl)-pyridine with the quantum yield 0.37, while irradiation at 254 nm initially gave nitroso compound which in turn is photooxidized to 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-dicarbomethoxy-4-(2'-nitrophenyl) -pyridine with the quantum efficiency of 0.014 on further irradiation in the presence of oxygen. The intramolecular hydrogen abstraction of nifedipine proceeded from the triplet excited sitate.
