Item Phenyliodine(III) Diacetate-Mediated 1,2-ipso-Migration in Mannich Bases of Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines: Preparation of N-Acetoxymethyl/Alkoxymethyl-N-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-amines(ACS, 2020-05) Kumar, AnilPhenyliodine(III) diacetate -mediated 1,2-ipso-migration of an imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine ring via the formation of an aziridine intermediate in Mannich bases derived from imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines, 2-pyridylamines or arylamines, and formaldehyde is reported. The imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines bearing different substituents showed excellent migratory aptitude and resulted in corresponding N-acetoxymethyl-, N-alkoxymethyl-, and N-hydroxymethyl-N-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-amine derivatives in moderate to excellent (42 examples; 35–93%) yields. Radical trapping experiments confirmed the involvement of a non-radical intermediate. The developed protocol is amenable for a scale-up reaction, and synthetic utility of N-acetoxymethyl products was demonstrated by transforming them to corresponding N-(pyridin-2-yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-aminesItem KPF6-Mediated Esterification and Amidation of Carboxylic Acids(ACS, 2022-01) Kumar, AnilA novel KPF6-promoted green method has been developed for the synthesis of esters and amides. A wide range of carboxylic acids and alcohols or amines worked well under the developed reaction conditions, thus providing good to excellent (61–98%) yields of the corresponding esters and amides. The method worked well with bioactive substrates such as cholesterol, levulinic acid, and linoleic acid. Wide substrate scope, operational simplicity, scalability, and sustainability make this protocol a practical and economically attractive approach for the preparation of ester and amides.Item Catalyst-Controlled Regiodivergent Oxidative Annulation of 2-Arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines with Cinnamaldehyde Derivatives for Construction of Fused N-Heterocyclic Framework(ACS, 2023-09) Kumar, AnilCatalyst-dependent regioselective oxidative annulation of 2-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines with cinnamaldehyde derivatives to construct fused N-heterocyclic frameworks has been described. The annulation reaction afforded 5-arylnaphtho[1′,2′:4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-6-carbaldehydes in the presence of [RhCp*Cl2]2 as catalyst while 1,7-diarylimidazo[5,1,2-cd]indolizine-6-carbaldehydes were obtained using Pd(OAc)2 as catalyst. The reaction produced annulated products in good yields and exhibited broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance. The method provides two different isomeric annulated products bearing an aldehyde functionality which can be elaborated into an array of functionalities leading to valuable compounds.Item Palladium-Catalyzed Weakly Coordinating Lactone-Directed C–H Bond Functionalization of 3-Arylcoumarins: Synthesis of Bioactive Coumestan Derivatives(ACS, 2021) Kumar, Anil; Kumar, DalipA palladium-catalyzed highly regioselective ortho-selective C–H functionalization of 3-arylcoumarins has been developed. The method utilizes the weakly coordinating lactone as a directing group. The versatility of the strategy is highlighted by developing methodologies for alkenylation, halogenation, fluoroalkoxylation, and hydroxylation. Different functional groups were well tolerated, and functionalized coumarins were obtained in moderate to high yields. The method also showed good selectivity for monofunctionalization versus difunctionalization. The generated ortho-hydroxy derivatives were cyclized in the presence of DDQ, thus developing a simple and fast method for the synthesis of bioactive coumestan from 3-arylcoumarins.
