C−H activation and functionalization is quite promising in recent days as the strategy offers a go‐to general method for different bond formations and hence grants synthetic versatility. At the same time, imidazopyridine, a fused bicycle of imidazole moiety with pyridine ring, has a profound impact due to its ubiquitous and prodigious application in medicinal as well as material chemistry. The presence of N‐1 atom in 2‐arylImidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine facilitates the coordination with metal catalysts leading to the formation of ortho‐substituted products. This review summarizes all the articles on ortho C−H functionalization of 2‐arylImidazo[1,2‐a]pyridines published till August 2021.
