Abstract:Metal−N-heterocyclic carbene (M−NHC) complexes are well-known as an important class of organometallic compounds widely used in transition-metal catalysis. Taking into account that the steric hindrance around the metal center is one of the major effects in M−NHC catalysis, the development of new, sterically hindered M−NHC complexes is an ongoing interest in this field of research. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of exceedingly sterically hindered, well-defined, air-and moisture-stable Cu(I)… Show more
