A facile entry to 3-aryl/alkenyl/alkynyl substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines (3a–p, 6a–d & 9a–9e) has been developed from readily available benzyl/allyl/propargyl halides and 2-amino pyridines as substrates via formimidamide chemistry that is devoid of caustic or expensive reagents, such as transition metal complexes. Quantum chemical calculations performed to understand the underlying mechanism of
