TY - T1 - Synthesis, Structures, and Electronic Properties of O- and S-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes of Iridium, Copper, Silver, and Gold SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/316994 T3 - A1 - Joost, Maximilian; Nieger, Martin; Lutz, Martin; Ehlers, Andreas W.; Slootweg, Jacob Christiaan (Chris); Lammertsma, Koop A2 - PB - Y1 - 2020 LA - eng AB - O- and S-heterocyclic carbenes (OHCs, SHCs) are shown experimentally and computationally to be stronger pi acceptors than NHCs and lack, of course, substituents at the heteroatoms. These different electronic and steric characteristics make OHCs and SHCs interesting ligands for coordination chemistry. Convenient synthetic routes are presented to access their iridium(I), iridium(III), and coinage-metal(I) (Cu, Ag, Au) complexes in good yields by means of dissociation of olefins, deprotonation of p...
