There are two crystallographically independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(22)H(17)BrN(6). The dihedral angles between the imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine mean plane and the phenyl rings are 20.4 (2) and 24.0 (2)° in the two mol-ecules. The orientation of triazoles compared to the imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine system is almost the same in both mol-ecules, with dihedral angles of ...

A new series of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole analogs containing a methyl sulfonyl COX-2 pharmacophore was synthesized and evaluated for their COX-2 inhibitory activity. According to in-vitro COX-1/COX-2 inhibition data, all compounds (6a-g) were selective inhibitors of COX-2 isoenzyme with IC50 values in the highly potent 0.08-0.16 mM range. These results indicated that both potency and selectivity o...

A short and practical synthesis of 2,3-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines, based on microwave-assisted Heck-type arylation of 2-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines, was developed. A 45-membered library of 2,3-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines was obtained with good yields and purities using this optimized protocol.

A traceless solid-phase synthesis of 6-amino- and 6-hydroxyimino-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones and 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triones has been developed. The strategy comprises of linking a preformed N-carbamothioylcarbamate to bromomethyl resin to give a S-linked isothiourea, which then undergoes cyclization with isocynates to yield the resin-bound 1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diones. Subsequent cleavage was acco...

Starting from 2,3-diaminopyridine, several novel 2-amino [2,3:4,5] imidazo [1,2-a] [1,3,5] triazines (2-6), 2(1H-imidazo [4,5-b] pyridine-2-yl) imino) -2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazoles (7-11), pyrido [2,3,4,5] imidazo [1,2-a] pyrimidones (13-16), 9H [1,2,4] triazolo [4,3:1,2] imidazo [4,5-b] pyridines (20-21) and 1-(1H-imidazo [4,5-b] pyridine-2-yl) -3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-ol (22a) were synthesized in ...

Iodine-catalyzed regioselective sulfenylation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines via C(sp(2))-H bond functionalization has been achieved using sulfonyl hydrazides as a thiol surrogate. A library of 3-sulfanylimidazopyridines with broad functionalities was synthesized under metal and oxidant-free practical reaction conditions. This methodology is also applicable for the regioselective sulfenylation of i...

The anion-radical coupling of structurally diverse series of aromatic compounds possessing biaryl linkages led to seven fused, polycyclic heterocycles in reasonable yields. The yield of the key step (K, toluene, O2) depends on both electronic and steric factors. The whole strategy consists of just two steps starting from an unsubstituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, giving target compounds in an ove...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and pyrimidines are important organic fluorophores which have been investigated as biomarkers and photochemical sensors. The effect on the luminescent property by substituents in the heterocycle and phenyl rings, have been studied as well. In this investigation, series of 3-hydroxymethyl imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and pyrimidines were synthesized an...

Small molecules have been shown to be potent and selective probes to understand cell physiology. Here, we show that imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines compose a class of compounds that target essential, conserved cellular processes. Using validated chemogenomic assays in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we discovered that two closely related compounds, an imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine and ...

Twelve phosphonopropionates derived from 2-hydroxy-3-imidazo[1,2- a ]pyridin-3- yl -2-phosphonopropionic acid (3-IPEHPC) were synthesized and evaluated for their activity as inhibitors of protein geranylgeranylation.
