Abstract

An efficient and chemoselective C(sp2)-N bond cleavage of aromatic imidazo[1,2- a]pyridine molecules is developed. A broad scope of amide compounds such as α-ketoamides and N-(pyridin-2-yl)arylamides are afforded as the final products in up to quantitative yields. Diverse C-N bond cleavages are controlled by the oxidative species used in this transformation, with various amide products afforded in a chemoselective fashion. A preliminary study indicated that some α-ketoamides exhibit anti-Tobacco Mosaic Virus activity for potential use in plant protection.
