An aerobic coupling of 2-aminopyrimidines or 2-aminopyridines with <i>trans</i>-chalcones to afford aroylimidazo[1,2-<i>a</i>]pyrimidines and aroylimidazo[1,2-<i>a</i>]pyridines is reported. Reactions proceed in the presence of CuFe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> superparamagnetic nanoparticle catalyst, two equivalents of iodine, oxygen oxidant, and 1,4-dioxane solvent. The catalyst is superior to many common copper or iron complexes. Copper ferrite could be easily separated by magnetic decantation an ...[more]
