摘要: 通过氮杂环卡宾(NHC)配体骨架的精准设计、金属–配体协同作用及催化体系的精细调控,NHC过渡金属络合物在催化碳–碳键构筑中展现出卓越的催化性能。本文重点综述近五年NHC过渡金属络合物在催化C-H键活化构建碳–碳键生成的研究进展。
Abstract: Through rational design of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand scaffolds, synergism metal-ligand interactions, and precise modulation of catalytic system, NHC transition metal complexes demonstrated exceptional catalytic efficiency in carbon-carbon bond formation. This review highlights advances in catalytic C-H activation for C-C bond formation mediated by NHC-transition metal complexes in the recent 5 years.
