The employment of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) to design luminescent metal
compounds has been the focus of recent intense investigations because of the strong σ …

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 …

This Feature Article presents and discusses the use of different methods to quantify and
explore the steric impact of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands. These include (a) the …

Two-coordinate carbene-MI-amide (cMa, MI= Cu, Ag, Au) complexes have emerged as
highly efficient luminescent materials for use in a variety of photonic applications due to their …

Quantification and variation of characteristic properties of different ligand classes is an
exciting and rewarding research field. N‐Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are of special …

Electronic and steric ligand effects both play major roles in organometallic chemistry and
consequently in metal-mediated catalysis. Quantifying such parameters is of interest to …

Dans ce travail, on présente une revue des travaux effectués dans le domaine de la chimie
du Au (I) NHC. On discute de l'efficacité des diverses stratégies de synthèse des Au (I) NHC …

Ofele and Wanzlick first pioneered the metalation of imidazol-2-ylidenes, better known as N-
heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), from imidazolium salts in 1968. 1, 2 Lappert and co-workers …

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are nowadays ubiquitous in organometallic chemistry and
catalysis. Recently, a synthetic method which makes use of weak bases and desirable …

The continuous growth of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) chemistry is a fact that is pointed
out in all the introductions of the publications regarding NHCs that have appeared in the …
