1‐Alkyl‐2‐hydroxy‐2,3‐dihydroimidazo [1,2‐ a ] pyridinium salts (III) have been identified as isolatable intermediates in the synthesis of 1‐alkylimidazo[1,2‐ a ] pyridinium salts (II) from 2‐alkylaminopyridines and α‐haloketones. Spectral data suggest that these intermediates exist exclusively as the cyclic ring tautomers III rather than chain tautomers VI.
