4-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a]pyridin-5-yl)benzamide CAS:102676-43-7

As a versatile building block, this molecule facilitates efficient medicinal chemistry and materials design. Reactions at the amide enable generation of targeted secondary amides, carboxylic acids, and amines introducing diversity. Additionally, modifications of the imidazopyridine nitrogen systematically produce analog libraries. These transformations rapidly furnish focused collections applicable for biological screening and property analysis. The amide also allows for surface attachments and polymerization. It may act as a monomer to access tailored macromolecules. Moreover, strategic conversions provide routes to novel agrochemicals. Therefore, through manipulations of its distinct reactive sites, this synthon supports versatile synthesis of pharmaceuticals, functional materials, and agricultural chemicals.
