The present invention is directed to certain hydropyranopyrrolidine compounds which are useful as neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptor antagonists, and inhibitors of tachykinin and in particular substance P. The invention is also concerned with pharmaceutical formulations comprising these compounds as active ingredients and the use of the compounds and their formulations in the treatment of certain disorders, including emesis, urinary incontinence, depression, and anxiety.

Dihydropyridines of formula ##STR1## where R.sup.6 is lower alkyl and R.sup.5 is lower alkyl or aryl (lower)alkyl are prepared by a novel process from sodium or potassium salts of 1-substituted-1,6-dihydro-5-hydroxy-3[2H]-pyridones. The dihydropyridines are useful as intermediates for pharmacologically active 1-optionally substituted-3-phenyl or substituted phenylpiperidin-5-ols and esters. Some of the piperidinols and esters are novel; those where the 1-substituent is aryl(lower)alkyl are intermediates, those where the 1-substituent is cycloalkyl(lower)alkyl are analgesics or antidepressants and those in which the 1-position is unsubstituted are anti-secretory agents.
