Ikemoto, Tomomi published the artcileReactions with N-chlorosuccinimide of various 5-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives with an electron-withdrawing group substituted at the 3-position, Formula: C8H7BrN2, the main research area is methylimidazopyridine preparation reaction chlorosuccinimide; pyridine methylimidazo preparation reaction chlorosuccinimide; imidazopyridine methyl preparation reaction chlorosuccinimide; chlorination mechanism methylimidazopyridine.
Chlorination reactions using N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) was investigated for various 5-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives, e.g. I (R = Cl, Br, NO2, CHO, CO2Et), with an electron-withdrawing group substituted at the 3-position. These reactions showed different results. Thus, reacting I (R = Cl) with NCS gave chloromethyl derivatives II (R1 = CH2Cl, CHCl2), whereas reacting I (R = Br) with NCS gave imidazopyridinium salts III (R2 = Br, Cl; X = Br, Cl). A proposed reaction mechanism for these transformations involved 3-halogenoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridium compounds as reaction intermediates.
Heterocycles published new progress about Chlorination. 5857-47-6 belongs to class imidazoles-derivatives, name is 3-Bromo-5-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, and the molecular formula is C8H7BrN2, Formula: C8H7BrN2.
