Abstract
Pyridinium dichloromethylids, formed in the reaction of dichlorocarbene with 2-(benzylideneamino)pyridines, undergo intramolecular 1,5-cyclization to give 2-aryl-3-chloroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines, which undergo partial conversion to 2-aryl-3-chloro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones under the reaction conditions. 2-Aryl-3-bromoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and 2-[N-(1-aryl-2,2,2-tribromoethyl)amino]pyridines, respectively, are obtained in the reaction of dibromocarbene and the tribromomethyl onion generated in the reaction of bromoform with potassium hydroxide.
