Abstract
Electro-synthesis through a one-pot three-component condensation of corresponding aldehydes, Meldrum’s acid, and 2-(nitromethylene)imidazolidine resulted in a series of novel tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-5(1H)-one derivatives containing an electronegative pharmacophore (=CNO2). The process was carried out in propanol medium with sodium bromide presented as electrolyte, inside an undivided cell with good to excellent yields. As a powerful entry into fused polycyclic structures related to bioactive heterocycles, this green protocol shows great potential.
