ABSTRACT: Three hexa-hydro-quinoline derivatives were synthesized and crystallized in an effort to study the structure-activity relationships of these calcium-channel antagonists. The derivatives are ethyl 4-(2-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2,7,7-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-quinoline-3-carboxyl-ate, C22H27NO4, (I), ethyl 4-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2,7,7-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-quinoline-3-carb-ox-yl-ate, C22H27NO4, (II), and ethyl 4-(3,4-di-hydroxy-phen-yl)-2,7,7-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-quinoline-3-carboxyl-ate, C21H24NO5, (III). In these hexa-hydro-quinoline derivatives, common structural features such as a flat-boat conformation of the 1,4-di-hydro-pyridine (1,4-DHP) ring, an
