Abstract
A convergent synthesis of chiral imidazo-[1,5- a]-pyridinium salts is described by facile introduction of a stereogenic center via the N2 substituent. Conversion of these optically active salts to the corresponding N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and their trapping with sulfur followed by optical activity measurements are discussed.
