Ag<sub>2</sub>O versus Cu<sub>2</sub>O in the Catalytic Isomerization of Coordinated Diaminocarbenes to Formamidines: A Theoretical Study

DFT theoretical calculations for the Ag<sub>2</sub>O-induced isomerization process of diaminocarbenes to formamidines, coordinated to Mn(I), have been carried out. The reaction mechanism found involves metalation of an N-H residue of the carbene ligand by the catalyst Ag<sub>2</...
