1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-Propanol-Promoted Friedel–Crafts Reaction: Metal-Free Synthesis of C3-Difluoromethyl Carbinol-Containing Imidazo[1,2-<i>a</i>]pyridines at Room Temperature

A facile and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of C3-difluoromethyl carbinol-containing imidazo[1,2-<i>a</i>]pyridines at room temperature via the HFIP-promoted Friedel–Crafts reaction of difluoroacetaldehyde ethyl hemiacetal and imidazo[1,2-<i>a</i>]pyrid...
