Abstract

AbstractA series of novel multifunctional carbenes of the type N‐phosphine imide‐substituted imidazolylidenes (PimIms) has been synthesized and characterized. Substituents including (+)‐10‐camphorsulfonyl and pyroglutamate groups were introduced on the N‐phosphinimidoyl moiety to diversify available structures of isolable carbenes. The impact that the rotation of the N‐phosphinimidoyl groups has on the spatial environment surrounding the carbene carbon atoms was evaluated theoretically. This analysis suggested that the shape as well as the volume of the reaction field around the carbene carbon atoms varies drastically during this rotation.
