RESUMO
A metal-free visible light induced C-3 formylation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine has been developed using tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) as a one carbon source. An array of 3-formyl imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines with wide functionality are synthesized using rose bengal as a photosensitizer under ambient air.
RESUMO
A simple and efficient metal-free arylation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines at the C-3 position with arylhydrazine has been achieved at room temperature under ambient air conditions. Various 2,3-disubstituted imidazopyridines and imidazothiazoles were synthesized with high yields. The present methodology demonstrates the usefulness of commercially available aryl hydrazine as an arylating agent.
RESUMO
A Zn(OTf)2-catalyzed simple and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of imidazole-substituted allenes by the reaction of 1,1,3-triphenylprop-2-yn-1-ol and imidazoheterocycles. A library of tetrasubstituted allenes with broad functionalities have been prepared with excellent yields. The present methodology is also applicable to imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine, imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole and benzo[d]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole.
