Synthesis, characterization, density function theory and catalytic performances of palladium(II)-N-heterocyclic carbene complexes derived from benzimidazol-2-ylidenes
1-Benzyl-3-ethylbenzimidazolium iodide (1) and 1-benzyl-3-(2′-nitrilebenzyl)benzimidazolium bromide (2) were prepared by the reaction of 1-benzylbenzimidazole with ethyl iodide or 2-bromomethylbenzonitrile to act as N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursors. Bis-NHC silver(I) complexes having halide (...
