The synthesis and analytical applications of the new heterocyclic ligand are described. The complexation reaction of the ligand with some cations was studied in aqueous methanol at room temperature using the spectrophotometric method. Results revealed that only the absorption spectra of the Fe (III)–ligand complex show a high redshift of the absorption maximum in the aqueous methanol soluti...

Three cis-chelating di-N-heterocyclic carbene palladium(II) complexes [Pd(X)2(di- NHC)] (X= tsac, sac and bit) tsac= thiosaccharinate, sac= saccharinate, bit= benzisothiazolinate, bearing different anionic co-ligand was synthesized characterized. A series of (2-5) homo-dicarbene ligand with varying propylene-bridged (C3) N-heterocyclic backbones (imidazole) have been by reaction [Pd(OAc)2] the ...

The reaction of [Pt(II)(2-phenylpyridine)(acac)] and benzothiazolium bromide yields the N,S-heterocyclic carbene ligand trans to pyridyl while, surprisingly, a very similar N,N-heterocyclic carbene coordinates predominantly trans to the cyclometallated carbon.

A rhodium( i ) complex bearing a monodentate N-heterocyclic carbene ligand has been confined into the core of amphiphilic core-crosslinked micelles (CCMs).

In the presence of carbon monoxide, ruthenium carbenes give a net insertion/ring expansion (Buchner reaction) into one of the aromatic rings of the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand. In alkene metathesis applications, the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand is both robust and typically inert to reactions with the metal-bound carbene. This unique reaction is completely regioselective. The complexes obtain...

The reaction between Ph2PH and C6F5CNS leads to the formation of the polyfluorinated benzothiazolephosphine ligand Ph2P(CNS)(C6F4) 1. The mechanism of the reaction involves the addition of the phosphine to the isothiocyanate and subsequent intramolecular nucleophilic aromatic substitution. This new ligand reacts with gold(I) substrates producing complexes [AuCl{Ph2P(CNS)(C6F4)}] 2 and [Au(C6F5)...

We report the first example of a charge-neutral linear two-coordinate copper(I) complex bearing sterically demanding acenaphthoimidazolylidene-based N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand. The identity and geometry are confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. is poorly emissive at room temperature, showing either ligand-centered (LC) emission around 340 nm when excited 300 or ...

The application of enantiomerically-pure ruthenium(II) catalysts containing N - functionalised TsDPEN ligand to the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation 15 examples ?-heterocyclic acetophenone derivatives is reported. Products up 99% ee were formed.

The synthesis and characterization of titanium complexes of the aryloxido-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene ligand (L) is reported, in which the tridentate L ligand meridionally coordinates to the metal center.

Triaryl-2-pyridylidene effectively facilitates the gold-catalyzed oxidative C-H arylation of heteroarenes with arylsilanes as a unique electron-donating ligand on gold. The employment of the 2-pyridylidene ligand, which is one of the strongest electron-donating N-heterocyclic carbenes, resulted in the rate acceleration of the C-H arylation reaction of heterocycles over conventional ligands such...
