Copper N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes as carbene transfer reagents.
A method is described that makes use of easily prepared, inexpensive copper synthons as N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) transfer agents to generate catalytically relevant gold and palladium complexes.
متن کاملLiquid crystals of gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes.
Three types of Au(I) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and imidazole (Im) complexes, namely [Au(NHC)Cl], [Au(NHC)(Im)][NO(3)], and [Au(NHC)(2)][NO(3)], with two-, three-, and four-N-long alkyl chains, respectively, were synthesized and their mesomorphic properties investigated. Only the [Au(NHC)(Im)][NO(3)] series of compounds, adopting an m-shaped conformation in the solid state, showed liquid crys...
متن کاملMagnesium amido N-heterocyclic carbene complexes.
Magnesium dications bind strongly to a tridentate anionic dicarbene ligand L = [N{CH(2)CH(2)(CNCHCHNMes)}(2)] forming dinuclear and trinuclear Mg complexes with some particularly short Mg-C bonds. Treatment of the proligand H(4)LCl(3) with three equivalents of methyl magnesium chloride or benzyl magnesium chloride affords Mg(3)(HL)Cl(6) in high yield. A suspension of in thf was heated to 80 deg...
متن کاملBent metal carbene geometries in amido N-heterocyclic carbene complexes.
Lithium(I) and uranium(VI) amido-tethered Bu(t)-substituted N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes exhibit very distorted metal-carbene bonds; the corresponding magnesium(II) and mesityl-substituted NHC uranium(VI) complexes are undistorted; the distortion does not affect the ligand binding strength, suggesting a dominance of electrostatic character in closed-shell electropositive metal-carbene...
متن کاملFerrocenyl-Coupled N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes of Gold(I): A Successful Approach to Multinuclear Anticancer Drugs.
Four gold(I) carbene complexes featuring 4-ferrocenyl-substituted imidazol-2-ylidene ligands were investigated for antiproliferative and antivascular properties. They were active against a panel of seven cancer cell lines, including multidrug-resistant ones, with low micromolar or nanomolar IC50 (72 h) values, according to their lipophilicity and cellular uptake. The delocalized lipophilic cati...
