N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are nowadays ubiquitous and indispensable as ancillary
ligands in organotransition metal chemistry, with an enormous variety of NHC types known …

This report provides a critical overview of recent developments in the use of N-heterocyclic
carbenes (NHCs) with transition metals. For these NHC ligand-containing complexes, an …

In less than 20 years N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have become well-established
ancillary ligands for the preparation of transition metal-based catalysts. This is mainly due to …

N-Heterocyclic Carbenes in Transition Metal Catalysis and Organocatalysis features all
catalytic reactions enabled by N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), either directly as …

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are omnipresent ligands in coordination and
organometallic chemistry, which is reflected by myriads of applications involving NHC …

N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are a widely used class of ligands that have enabled an
exciting variety of organometallic chemistry and catalysis. As researchers design and …

Since the discovery of persistent carbenes by the isolation of 1, 3-di-l-adamantylimidazol-2-
ylidene by Arduengo and coworkers, we witnessed a fast growth in the design and …

It was only in the early 1990s that carbenes with the carbene carbon being incorporated in a
nitrogen containing heterocycle (N-heterocyclic carbenes or NHCs) were found to be stable …

N-Heterocyclic carbenes, despite being isolated and characterized three decades ago, still
capture scientists' interest as versatile, modular and strongly coordinating moieties. In the …

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) are nowadays ubiquitous and indispensable in many
research fields, and it is not possible to imagine modern transition metal and main group …
