title: Efficient Pd(0)-mediated microwave-assisted arylation of 2-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines.
abstract: A short and practical synthesis of 2,3-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines, based on microwave-assisted Heck-type arylation of 2-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines, was developed. A 45-membered library of 2,3-substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines was obtained with good yields and purities using this optimized protocol.
