Using Iridium to Illuminate N-Heterocyclic Carbenes
An international team of chemists recently reported progress in
synthesizing and studying iridium complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene
(NHC) ligands. Such carbene complexes have attracted interest as catalysts
for various reactions, including olefin metathesis, hydrogenation, and
isomerization. Further understanding of this ligand family is expected
contribute toward a sustainably green chemical industry.
