Collaborative research article from the groups of Dr Rowan Young (NUS) and Dr Tobias Krämer (Maynooth University) just published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition
Base metal catalysts carrying PCP pincer ligands, where the central carbon is an sp2-hybridised carbene carbon atom, have found increasing attention in recent years due to their ability to perform difficult bond transformations. These ligand platforms enable these complexes to partake in metal-ligand cooperativity, which often endows them with reactivities comparable to their noble metal counterparts.
