Abstract
The biologically important 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines were readily synthesized from N-(pyridin-2-yl)benzimidamides via phenyliodine bis(trifluoroacetate)-mediated intramolecular annulation. This novel strategy allows for the convenient construction of a 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine skeleton through direct metal-free oxidative N-N bond formation, featuring a short reaction time and high reaction yields.
