Transmetalation from Magnesium–NHCs—Convenient Synthesis of Chelating π-Acidic NHC Complexes

The synthesis of chelating <i>N</i>-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes with considerable &#960;-acceptor properties can be a challenging task. This is due to the dimerization of free carbene ligands, the moisture sensitivity of reaction intermediates or reagents, and challenges ass...
