Abstract

:
A simple and novel route to the synthesis of imidazopyridines was developed. The present work involves the synthesis of 6-bromo-2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (3) by using microwave irradiation. The synthesized compound (3) was well characterized by NMR, IR, LCMS and elemental analysis.

Imidazopyridines were previously synthesized e.g. by the reaction between 5-bromo-2-aminopyridine (1) and 2-bromo-1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethanone (2) using different methods [1,2,3,4]. In the usual methods, bases like sodium bicarbonate or potassium carbonate were employed in polar solvents such as methanol or ethanol under reflux for 4-6 hours. The present work deals with the synthesis of 6-bromo-2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (3) using microwave irradiation. It is a simple method to prepare imidazo-pyridines.

A solution of 5-bromo-2-aminopyridine (3.87 g, 1 eq) and 2-bromo-1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethanone (3.0 g, 2 eq) in DMF was placed in a microwave Pyrex tube which was introduced into a Biotage Initiator 60 microwave reactor fitted with a rotational system. An approximate final temperature of 150°C was measured at the end of the irradiation time (10 min at 200 W).The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature. The reaction mass was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The solvent was evaporated under vacuum and the solid was triturated with MTBE and filtered.
