Oxo- and thiooxo-imidazo[1,5-c]pyrimidine molecule library: beyond their interest in inhibition of Brucella suis histidinol dehydrogenase, a powerful protection tool in the synthesis of histidine analogues

A novel synthetic approach to hydroimidazo[1,5-b]pyridazines by the recyclization of itaconimides and HPLC-HRMS monitoring of the reaction pathway

The novel cascade two-stage reaction between itaconimides and 1,2-diamino-4-phenylimidazole proceeds regio- and chemoselectively to form tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-b]pyridazines and includes nucleophilic C-addition by the activated C=C double bond and subsequent intramolecular recyclization of the intermediate with the amino group involved.
