Abnormally bound n-heterocyclic carbene ligands at group 10 metal centres : synthesis, structure, reaction chemistry and catalysis

This thesis describes the synthesis of NHC ligands bound to the C4 or C5 atom of imidazolium ring at Pt and Ni metal centres and the study of their reaction chemistry and catalytic behaviour. In order to prevent deprotonation of the C2-position novel C2-blocked imidazolium salts have been synthesise...
