Abstract:
This review presents an overview of the work on Au(I)–NHC chemistry. The efficiency of different synthetic strategies of Au(I)–NHCs is discussed. Transmetallation of Ag(I)–NHCs appears to be an easy method as compared with the others. The influence of aurophilicity "a traditional property of a Au(I) center" in making the supramolecular assemblies is also covered. The combination of the Au(I) center with NHCs has great potential in the fields of medicine, catalysis, liquid crystal, and optoelectronic.Key words: gold–carbenes, silver–carbenes, carbene transfer, aurophilicity.

Abstract:
The interplay between metals and N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) has provided a window of opportunities for the development of novel catalytic strategies within the past few years. The recent successful combination of Brønsted acids with NHCs has added a new dimension to the field of cooperative catalysis, enabling the stereoselective synthesis of functionalized pyrrolidin-2-ones as valuable scaffolds in heterocyclic chemistry. This Commentary will briefly highlight the concept of N-heterocyclic carbene/Brønsted acid cooperative catalysis as a new and powerful methodology in organic chemistry.

Abstract:
The last decades have witnessed a rapid growth of applications of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) in different chemistry fields. Due to their unique steric and electronic properties, NHCs have become a powerful tool in coordination chemistry, allowing the preparation of stable metal-ligand frameworks with both main group metals and transition metals. An overview on the use of five membered monodentate C2-symmetric N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) as ligands for transition-metal complexes and their most relevant applications in asymmetric catalysis is offered.

Fifteen cyclic and acylic carbenes have been calculated with density functional theory at the BP86/def2-TZVPP level. The strength of the internal X→p(π) π-donation of heteroatoms and carbon which are bonded to the C(II) atom is estimated with the help of NBO calculations and with an energy decomposition analysis. The investigated molecules include N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), the cyclic alkyl(amino)carbene (cAAC), mesoionic carbenes and ylide-stabilized carbenes. The bonding analysis suggests that the carbene centre in cAAC and in diamidocarbene have the weakest X→p(π) π-donation while meso

The electronic structures of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) imidazolinylidene, thiazolinylidene, imidazolylidene, thiazolylidene, and 1,2,4-triazolylidene and their complexes with cuprous halides (CuX, X=Cl, Br, I) were investigated theoretically at the B3LYP/def2-SVP level. In contrast to other NHCs, imidazolylidene and 1,2,4-triazolylidene do not dimerize owing to the negligible coefficient of the vacant p-orbital at the carbene centre in their respective LUMOs. This is further supported by their greater thermodynamic and kinetic stabilities revealed by greater activation free energies and sm

Abstract Very recently, N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have found a wide range of applications in the fields of catalysis and nonlinear optics. Herein, we have employed 1,3-bis-(1(S)-benzyl)-4,5-dihydro-imidazol-based carbene as a reference molecule and substituted one H atom from each CH2 of the benzyl groups in both sides by CH3, NH2, and CF3 to study the thermodynamic and opto-electronic properties of NHCs theoretically. It was observed that the enthalpy (H), Gibb’s free energy (G), specific heat capacity (C v), and entropy (S) increase significantly in the presence of the electron-withdraw

Abstract:
This thesis details investigations into organocatalytic reactions promoted by N Heterocyclic Carbenes (NHCs) that proceed via an assumed azolium enolate intermediate. Initial research focused on the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of β-lactones via an NHC-catalysed formal [2+2] cycloaddition of alkylarylketenes and chloral. This process operated in good yield (typically >70%) and moderate diastereoselectivity (typically ~75:25 dr, anti:syn) for a range of alkylarylketenes. The enantioselectivity was consistently high for the major anti diastereomer (typically >80% ee) and minor syn diastereomer

Abstract:
The versatility of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) is demonstrated by numerous practical applications in homogeneous transition metal catalysis, organocatalysis and materials science. There remains a paucity of electropositive metal NHC complexes and so this chemistry is poorly developed with respect to that of the late transition metal and main group elements. This thesis describes the synthesis of new alkoxy-tethered NHC proligands, their use in the synthesis of reactive metal amide and metal alkyl complexes, and finally small molecule activation using these complexes.

The aim of my training period has been the synthesis of new chiral N-heterocyclic carbene precursors starting from camphoric diacid and the employment of imidazolium salts derived NHC as linker to dendrimers supports for organometallic catalysis. New chiral ligands are needed to develop new catalytic systems for enantioselective transformations. The new type of ligand described was developed starting from camphoric diacid, a cheap chiral molecule, following different synthetic strategies.
