Abstract

Abstract The room temperature ionic liquid n-butylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate (BPyBF 4) is used as a 'green'recyclable alternative to classical molecular solvents for the cyclocondensation of α-tosyloxyketones with 1-aminoisoquinoline to prepare imidazo [2, 1- a] isoquinolines in good yields.
