A Sonochemical and Mechanochemical One‐Pot Multicomponent/Click Coupling Strategy for the Sustainable Synthesis of Bis‐Heterocyclic Drug Scaffolds

Bis-heterocycles were synthesized via a consecutive one-pot process by a Groebke-Blackburn-Bienaymé reaction (GBB-3CR) followed by Copper-catalyzed Alkyne-Azide Cycloaddition (CuAAC) assisted by alternative sustainable energies (ASE) such as ultrasonic and mechanical. These efficient and convergent strategies allowed the in situ generation of complex azides functionalized with imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines (IMPs), which was used as a synthetic platform. The target molecules contain two privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry: IMPs and the heterocyclic bioisostere of trans-amide bond, the 1,4-disubstituted 1H-1,2,3-triazoles (1,4-DS-1,2,3-Ts).
