Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives were synthesized through multicomponent couplingreactions of 2-aminopyridines, aldehydes, and alkynecarboxylic acids in the presence of 10 mol-% CuI/Cu(OTf)2. Both aryl- and alkyl-substituted alkynecarboxylic acids, including propiolic acid, were good alkyne sources and afforded the desired imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines in good yields through the decarboxylative coupling
