An expeditious catalyst-free heteroannulation reaction for imidazo[1,2- a]pyridines/pyrimidines/pyrazines was developed in green solvent under microwave irradiation. Using HO-IPA as the reaction medium, various substituted 2-aminopyridines/pyrazines/pyrimidines underwent annulation reaction with α-bromoketones under microwave irradiation to provide the corresponding imidazo[1,2- a]pyridines/pyrimidines/pyrazines in excellent yields. The synthetic methodology appears to be very simple and superior to the already reported procedures with the high abundance of commercial reagents and great ability in expanding the molecular diversity. The present synthetic sequence is visualized as an environmentally benign process which allows the introduction of three points of structural diversity to expand chemical space with excellent purity and yields. The anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities of the derivatives were evaluated. Screening results uncovered three derivatives with strong inhibition of albumin denaturation and two derivatives were active on Proteus and Klebsiella bacteria. These positive bioassay results implied that the library of potential anti-inflammatory agents could be rapidly prepared in an ecofriendly manner, and provided new insights into drug discovery for medicinal chemists.
