Abstract
A novel series of bis Indy-NHC gold complexes have been developed and investigated via a mild Ag-carbene transfer route. The obtained complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The catalytic property of these gold complexes was further evaluated in the oxidation of benzylic. The gold complex E1 showed a high catalytic activity in the oxidation of various benzylic substrates, resulting in the corresponding carbonyl compounds with excellent yields using TBHP as oxidant.
