Abstract: An array of 3-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines has been synthesized via perfluorohexyl iodide-mediated coupling of 2-aminopyridines and phenylacetylenes. In-situ iodination of the terminal alkyne by perfluorohexyl iodide reverses the polarity by generating a transient electrophilic iodoalkyne, altering the… read more here.
