Abstract
Abstract This chapter describes the main synthetic pathways to access N-heterocyclic carbene–metal complexes. Routes covered include the complexation of free carbenes, metal-induced decomposition of carbene adducts, in situ generation of carbenes in the presence of metals, transmetalation, and templated synthesis from isocyanides.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
