C-H activation and functionalization is quite promising in recent days as the strategy offers a go-to general method for different bond formations and hence grants synthetic versatility. At the same time, imidazopyridine, a fused bicycle of imidazole moiety with pyridine ring, has a profound impact due to its ubiquitous and prodigious application in medicinal as well as material chemistry. The presence of N-1 atom in 2-arylImidazo[1,2-a]pyridine facilitates the coordination with metal catalysts leading to the formation of ortho-substituted products. This review summarizes all the articles on ortho C-H functionalization of 2-arylImidazo[1,2-a]pyridines published till August 2021.

Cp*Co(III)-catalyzed -alkylation/alkenylation of anilides.

A highly practical and efficient Cp*Co(III)-catalyzed C-H alkylation/alkenylation reaction of anilides with maleimides and acrylates was developed, during which a weakly coordinating amide carbonyl group functioned as the directing group. This approach features high efficiency, good functional group tolerance, and broad substrate scope, and a variety of 3-substituted succinimides and -alkenylated anilides were synthesized in moderate to excellent yields. Furthermore, the reaction is highly selective, affording mono--alkylated/alkenylated products only.

Article Synopsis
  • A new method for the oxidative C-H alkenylation of benzoic acid using [Ru(η-CH)Cl] catalyst has been developed, operating efficiently in water at mild temperatures (60 °C).
  • The reaction shows regioselectivity, producing mono-olefinated products when using activated alkenes like acrylates, while both mono and diolefinated products emerge from unactivated alkenes such as styrene.
  • A novel five-membered cyclic compound was formed from vinylferrocene as a coupling partner, indicating a unique reactivity profile compared to other alkenes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the development of a new type of rigid, three-dimensional polymers known as stepladder polymers, utilizing spirodihydroquinoline structures.
  • These polymers are created through a reaction facilitated by a scandium catalyst that activates specific chemical bonds, allowing for the formation of complex structures from quinoline and alkyne compounds.
  • The resulting polymers have increased thermal stability and porosity after undergoing a treatment that adds a methyl group to their nitrogen-containing functional groups.

Rhodium(III) catalysis has been used for C-H activation of -nitrosoanilines with substituted allyl alcohols. This method provides an efficient synthesis of the functional -nitroso β-aryl aldehydes and ketones with low catalyst loading, high functional group tolerance, and superior reactivity of allyl alcohols toward -nitrosoanilines. We demonstrated that reaction also proceeds through the one-pot synthesis of -nitrosoaniline, followed by subsequent, C-H activation.

The isoquinoline core is present in one of the largest subsets of bioactive natural products. The multifunctional isoquinoline core exerts diverse bioactivity, resulting in the development of numerous isoquinoline-based drugs and molecules that are currently under clinical trials. We developed a new approach for phosphite-mediated [1,2] alkyl migration for an overall -C-H alkylation -alkylation of isoquinoline.
