Recent Progress in the Pharmacology of Imidazo1,2-apyridines

Imidazo1,2-apyridine is a bicyclic system with a bridgehead nitrogen atom, of growing interest in medicinal chemistry. The paper deals with the recent progress realised in the comprehension of the pharmacological properties of this scaffold. From the many imidazo1,2-apyridine analogues described in the literature, those discussed herein will be presented in three parts concerning first the enzyme inhibitors, then the receptor ligands and finally the anti-infectious agents.
