N-heterocyclic carbene-iron(II) complexes : chemistry and application as transfer hydrogenation catalysts.

In the last decade N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have become important in organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis, rivalling the well established phosphines. Most of the current attention to date has focused on the NHC complexes of the platinum group metals (rhodium, palladium and...
