Group 9 and 10 transition metal n-heterocyclic carbene complexes in catalysis

This thesis describes the theoretical and experimental study of group 9 and 10 transition metal N-heterocyclic carbene complexes in catalytic reactions. In order to overcome decomposition reactions discovered in the use of carbene complexes for carbon monoxide/ethylene copolymerisation, chelating th...
