N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have become without doubt one of the most exciting and
popular species in chemical science due to the ease of their preparation and modularity in …

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 …

It is well-recognized that N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have provided a new
dimension to the design of homogeneous catalysts. Part of the success of this type of ligands …

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 …

The field of multimetallic catalysis is rapidly develo** and some multimetallic complexes
catalyze organic transformations to yield the desired products in more efficient ways owing …

Controlled ligand‐based redox‐activity and chemical non‐innocence are rapidly gaining
importance for selective (catalytic) processes. This Concept aims to provide an overview of …

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 …

A gold complex with a naphthalene-di-imide-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)
ligand was prepared and characterized. The electrochemical studies reveal that the complex …

Catalysis with gold (I) complexes is a useful route for synthesizing a variety of important
heterocycles. Often, silver (I) additives are necessary to increase the Lewis acidity at the …

In this study we report the preparation of a new mechanically interlocked molecule formed
by the self‐aggregation of two metallotweezers composed by two pyrene‐imidazolylidene …
