Abstract
Pyrido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles, which show interesting and potentially useful biological activities, have drawn extensive attention from chemists. A straightforward copper acetate-oxidative one-pot synthesis of these compounds from 2-aminopyridines and phenylboronic acids through C–N bond formation and C–H bond activation was developed as a simple and convenient method.

- 20 Pyrido[1,2-a ]benzimidazole (3aa); Typical Procedure An oven-dried Schlenk tube was charged with 2-aminopyridine (1a; 0.32 mmol), PhB(OH)2 (2a; 0.38 mmol), and Cu(OAc)2 (29 mg, 0.16 mmol). The Schlenk tube was sealed and then evacuated and backfilled with O2 (three cycles). DMSO (2 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 120 °C for 36 h then cooled to r.t. The solvent was diluted with EtOAc (10 mL), and the mixture was washed with brine (5 mL) then dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, PE–EtOAc) to give a yellow solid; yield: 43 mg (80%); mp 174–176 °C. IR (neat): 3057, 3018, 1641, 1502, 1466, 1356, 1258, 1226, 1144, 756, 723 cm–1. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 8.42 (dd, J = 6.8, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 7.94 (d, J = 8.4 Hz, 1 H), 7.86 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1 H), 7.68 (dd, J = 9.2, 0.8 Hz, 1 H), 7.54–7.51 (m, 1 H), 7.42–7.34 (m, 2 H), 6.82 (t, J = 6.8 Hz, 1 H). 13C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 148.4, 144.5, 129.2, 128.6, 125.6, 125.1, 120.9, 119.9, 118.0, 110.3, 110.2. HRMS (ESI): m/z [M + H]+ calcd for C11H9N2: 169.0760; found: 169.0757.
