Starting from Schiff bases 1, a wide variety of heterobicycles, which can be applied as pharmaceuticals or as ligands for catalysts, is accessible by copper-catalyzed oxidation with atmospheric oxygen. The scheme shows, for example, the synthesis of imidazo[1,5-a]pyridines 2 (R1=2-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl, tBu, 2-hydroxyphenyl, 2-aminophenyl; R2=2-pyridyl, Me, phenyl).
