Oxidative addition of donor-functionalised 4-iodoimidazolium salts to palladium(0) provides a selective route for the preparation of chelating abnormal N-heterocylic carbene complexes and enables the introduction of a ...
The expansion of the concept of N-heterocyclic carbenes as ligands for transition metals to mesoionic ligand systems has led to the discovery of a wide range of non-classical carbene-type ligands. These non-classical ...
Rhodium(III) complexes comprising monoanionic C,C,C-tridentate dicarbene ligands activate Si–H bonds and catalyse the hydrolysis of hydrosilanes to form silanols and siloxanes with concomitant release of H2. In dry MeNO2, ...
Abnormal C4-bonding of N-heterocyclic carbenes effectively modulates the electron density at rhodium and allows for the selective cleavage of an unactivated C(sp3)–H bond, whereas no such intramolecular C–H bond breaking ...
