A persistent carbene (also known as stable carbene) is an organic molecule whose natural resonance structure has a carbon atom with incomplete octet (a...

exception are the persistent carbenes, which have extensive application in modern organometallic chemistry. There are two common methods for carbene generation...

transition metal carbene complex is an organometallic compound featuring a divalent carbon ligand, itself also called a carbene. Carbene complexes have...

coinage metal center (M = Cu, Ag, Au) ligated by at least one NHC-type persistent carbene. A variety of such complexes have been synthesized through deprotonation...

Carbenes in their triplet state can be viewed as diradicals centred on the same atom, while these are usually highly reactive persistent carbenes are...

with a carbene precursor. An early pioneer was Christoph Grundmann reporting on a carbene dimerisation in 1938. In the domain of persistent carbenes the...

National Hockey Center in St. Cloud, Minnesota N-Heterocyclic carbene, a persistent carbene, commonly used as ligand in organometallic chemistry Nearly...

The triazol-5-ylidenes are a group of persistent carbenes which includes the 1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene system and the 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene system. As...

synthesis of some original persistent carbenes, including bis(diisopropylamino)cyclopropenylidene, the first example of a carbene with all-carbon environment...

strong bases. Unlike with olefins, the ylides traditionally called persistent carbenes instead tend to cleave the central bond, forming two phosphaalkene/phosphinidene...
