Two efficient synthetic routes to preparation of 2,3-diarylimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazines and 2,3-diarylimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazines are described. The procedures involve a Suzuki cross-coupling reaction and a palladium-catalyzed direct arylation at position 3 and

A new annulation method for the preparation of the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine ring system under mild conditions is presented. Treatment of a 2-aminopyridine with a dimethylketal tosylate in acetonitrile at elevated temperature (80-140°C) in the presence of catalytic Sc(OTf)3 provides the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine product in good yield. The annulation method is broadly applicable to electron-poor 2-aminopyridines and displays a complementary profile to the classic preparation of the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine ring system by reaction of a bromoketone with electron-rich and -neutral substrates. The scope of the process and mechanistic considerations are discussed.
