Abstract
We report the synthesis and catalytic activity of a polymeric imidazolium salt. In contrast to the well-known resin-supported N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), the material described herein affords a polymer with NHCs orthogonally positioned along a main chain upon generation in situ. The unique structural characteristics of the corresponding poly(NHC)s enabled the materials to display catalytic activities that were similar or superior to those displayed by monomeric analogues. Moreover, the new catalyst was successfully recovered and reused with minimal loss of performance over several cycles.
