Mesoionic carbenes are a subclass of the family of N-heterocyclic carbenes that generally
feature less heteroatom stabilization of the carbenic carbon and hence impart specific donor …

The emergence of N-heterocyclic carbenes as ligands across the Periodic Table had an
impact on various aspects of the coordination, organometallic, and catalytic chemistry of the …

Although the coordination chemistry of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) with transition
metals has been explored for half a century, only in the past ten years has the chemistry of …

Mesoionic carbenes (MICs) of the 1, 2, 3-triazolylidene type have established themselves as
a popular class of compounds over the past decade. Primary reasons for this popularity are …

Even though the existence of 1, 2, 3‐triazoles has been known for more than a century, the
recent discovery of a copper (I) catalyzed version of this reaction has attributed …

Copper (I)[Cu2 (μ-Br) 2 (tBuImCH2pyCH2L)] n (L= OMe, NEt2, NHtBu) compounds
supported by flexible functionalized NHC-based polydentate ligands have been prepared in …

Triazole-derived N-heterocyclic carbenes, triazolylidenes (trz) have become an interesting
alternative to the ubiquitous Arduengo-type imidazole-derived carbenes, in part because …

Mesoionic carbenes (MICs) are currently hugely popular as ligands, and triazolylidenes are
arguably the most prominent classes of such MICs. Mesoionic carbenes with ferrocenyl …

Mesoionic carbenes have found wide use as components of homogeneous catalysts.
Recent discoveries have, however, shown that metal complexes of such ligands also have …

Bidentate ligands containing at least one triazole or triazolylidene (mesoionic carbene, MIC)
unit are extremely popular in contemporary chemistry. One reason for their popularity is the …
