An N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) contains a carbene carbon incorporated in a nitrogen-
containing heterocycle, presumably reactive and difficult to isolate. 1 The first isolation of …

In the last two decades, CO2 emission has caused a lot of environmental problems. To
mitigate the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, various strategies have been …

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 …

Complete synthetic, structural, and biomedical studies of two Pd complexes as well as Au
and Ag complexes of 1-benzyl-3-tert-butylimidazol-2-ylidene are reported. Specifically, trans …

Air-stable Ir and Ru complexes of a chelating pyrimidine-functionalized N-heterocyclic
carbene were synthesized. The complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and …

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 …

This review discusses the principles underlying the design, synthesis, and catalytic
application of mono-and binuclear Pd (II)–N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes. The …

The in vogue N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have attracted attention largely for its new
found popularity in chemical catalysis and also for displaying promising traits in biomedical …

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 …

A series of neutral and cationic rhodium and iridium (I) complexes based on hemilabile O-
donor-and N-donor-functionalized NHC ligands having methoxy, dimethylamino, and …
