Imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines represent an important class ofheterocyclic compounds because of their largely potential application in photophysical and biological areas. These substances have been widely investigated in the context of organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) and organic thinlayer field effect transistors (FET). Furthermore, they have been explored in a wide range of potential pharmaceutical applications, including H1V-protease inhibitors, and Thromboxane A2 synthesis in- hibitors. However, literature survey found that only some strategies for the synthesis of imidazo[1,5-α]pyridine derivatives were reported. Traditionally, substituted imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines were accessed via Vilsmeier-type cyclizations of N-2-pyridylmethyl amides. Recently, Mural's group reported several methods for the construction of imidazo-[1,5-α]pyridine rings. Although these methods provided useful access to substituted imidazo[l,5-α]pyridine derivatives, they suffered from some drawbacks, such as the use of strong acid and high temperature, moreover, study on the preparation of 3-arylated imi- dazo[1,5-α]pyridines and 1,3-diarylated imidazo[l,5-α]pyridines in a procedure is rare. Therefore, developing more efficient and practical protocols for the preparation of 3-arylated imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines and 1,3-diarylated imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines still are highly desirable. As part of a program targeting new methods for constructing some useful heterocycles probably found application in pharmaceutical and industry areas. We chose pyridin-2-ylmethanamine and aldehydes as the reaction substrates to achieve the synthesis of imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines in the presence of iodine and TBHP. Moreover, a-substituted pyridin-2-ylmethanamine used as substrate reacted with aldehydes to also provide 1,3-diarylated imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines. Therefore, 3-aryl imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines and 1,3-diaryl imidazo[1,5-α]pyridines can be obtained through this method. Herein, we report a simple and efficient iodine-catalyzed synthesis of 3-substit
