DOI: 10.1039/d3cc01007d

Abstract: A mono-substituted Au(I) carbene was prepared by reacting HC(N2)(Dmp) (Dmp = 2,6-dimesitylphenyl) with an (o-carboranyl)-diphosphine AuNTf2 complex. It is stable up to -10 °C and was characterized by NMR spectrocopy. According to DFT calculations, the… read more here.
