8-Fluoroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine has been established as a physicochemical mimic of imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine, using both in silico and traditional techniques. Furthermore, a novel synthesis of a 3,7-disubstituted-8- fluoroimidazopyridine 3 has been developed and the utility of the physicochemical mimicry has been demonstrated in an in vitro system. Here, the 8-fluoroimidazopyridine ring contained in ligand 3 acts as a bioisosteric replacement for imidazopyrimidine in the GABAA receptor modulator 2.

A class of 8-fluoro-3-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives, substituted at the meta position of the phenyl ring by an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl group, or by a pyrrolidinonyl group, which is directly attached or bridged by an oxygen atom or by a -NH- or -OCH2- linkage, being selective ligands for GABAA receptors, in particular having high affinity for the α2 and/or α3 and/or α5 subunit thereof, are accordingly of benefit in the treatment and/or prevention of adverse conditions of the central nervous system, including anxiety, convulsions and cognitive disorders.

A class of 8-fluoroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives, substituted at the 3-position by an optionally substituted five-membered or six-membered heteroaromatic ring, being selective ligands for GABAA receptors, in particular having high affinity for the α2 and/or α3 and/or α5 subunit thereof, are accordingly of benefit in the treatment and/or prevention of adverse conditions of the central nervous system, including anxiety, convulsions and cognitive disorders.
