N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are cyclic carbenes bearing at least one R-amino
substituent. 1 The most common subclasses of NHCs are represented in Chart 1. Early work …

The chemistry of heterocyclic carbenes has experienced a rapid development over the last
years. In addition to the imidazolin‐2‐ylidenes, a large number of cyclic diaminocarbenes …

With the continuous development of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) chemistry during the past
decade, NHC metal complexes have gained wide applications in the research field of …

The coordination and organometallic chemistry of linear, rigid, tridentate ligands, which
incorporate at least one N-heterocyclic carbene and other 'classical'donors, is reviewed …

Abstract Die Chemie der heterocyclischen Carbene hat sich in den letzten Jahren stürmisch
entwickelt. Nach den Imidazolin‐2‐ylidenen wurden weitere cyclische Diaminocarbene mit …

The use of polydentate NHC ligands has allowed the preparation of new compounds whose
stability is entropically improved by the chelate effect. Chelate-N-heterocyclic ligands also …

This review focuses on the latest advances in homogeneous catalysis with donor‐
functionalised (donor= C, N, O, S or P) N‐heterocyclic carbene complexes of group 9 and 10 …

A series of alkylammonium-imidazolium chloride salts [RImH (CH2) n NMe2] Cl· HCl (R=
Me, t-Bu, Mes; n= 2, 3) have been prepared by alkylation of 1-substituted imidazole …

In this frontier article we overview the emergence and scope of NHC-based CCC and CNC
pincer systems, ie complexes containing mer-tridentate ligands bearing two NHC donor …

The first highly efficient ligand-controlled regio-and stereodivergent intermolecular
hydrosilylations of internal alkynes have been disclosed. Cationic ruthenium complexes …
