of 3-phenyl-1H-pyrrolo-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine backbone is described. The reaction starts from the coupling between N-tosylhydrazones and 2-chloro-3-nitroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines leading to the formation of 3-nitro-2-(arylvinyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridinederivatives. Optimization of Cadogan-reductive conditions allowed the conversion of the obtained nitro derivative to a new scaffold of the type 3-aryl-
system was found to promote the Csp2–N bond-forming reaction utilizing N-tosylhydrazones and N-H azoles. This process shows functional group tolerance; di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted N-vinylazoles were obtained in high yields. Under the optimized conditions, the reaction proceeds with high stereoselectivity depending on the nature of the coupling partners.
