A novel one-pot multicomponent reaction to synthesize substituted imidazopyrazines is described. In brief, 1<i>H</i>-(imidazol-5-yl)-<i>N</i>-substituted methanamines react with aldehydes and isocyanides in methanol at room temperature to give imidazopyrazine derivatives in excellent yields. The imidazole nitrogen atom was able to intercept the nascent nitrilium ion, channeling the reaction toward to the sole formation of imidazopyrazines, suppressing the competitive formation of other possible ...[more]
