Dihydropyridines (DHP) having a heterocyclic aryl substituent at position-4 are calcium channel antagonists. In this report a new group of DHP derivatives with different esters at the C 3 and C 5 position (asymmetrical diesters) containing 2,4-dichloro-5-thiazolyl at position-4 were synthesized by a condensation reaction of alkyl, cycloalkyl, and aryl acetoacetate in the presence of ammonium acetate in a new shorter pathway. The structure of all compounds was confirmed by IR, 1 H NMR, and mass spectrometry. The calcium channel antagonist activity of compounds 6a–6f demonstrated that the compound 6a was the most active compound.
