Abstract

The remarkable stability and characteristic properties of N-Heterocyclic carbenes have made them universal ligands in organometallic and inorganic coordination chemistry. They are major topic of interest for scientific minds these days. Because of their strong electron donating capabilities, they are considered as most attractive alternatives over conventional phosphine ligands. They are also known to have wide range of applications in organic transformations. Infact, for olefin metathesis there are no better catalyst than NHC-ruthenium complexes. With the advent of NHCs, a revolutionary turning point in organometallic catalysis is emerging.
