摘要: A series of heterocyclic compounds possessing imidazolo[1,2-a]pyridine moiety, namely, ethyl 7-methylimidazolo[1,2-a] pyridine-2-carboxylate L1; 2-(3-nitrophenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine L2; 3-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-yl)aniline L3; 2-phenylimidazolo[1,2-a]pyridine-3carbaldehyde L4; and 2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine L5 were synthesized. The in situ generated copper (II), iron zinc (II) complexes these (L1–L5) examined for their catalytic activities found to be effective catalysts the oxidation catechol o-quinone with atmospheric oxygen. present study reveals that rate depends on four parameters: nature ligand, transition metals, ion salts, concentration complex. combination L2(Cu(CH3COO)2) gives highest rate.
