A step-for-step main-group replica of the Fischer carbene synthesis at a borylene carbonyl by Marcel Härterich, Alexander Matler, Rian D. Dewhurst, Andreas Sachs, Kai Oppel, Andreas Stoy, Holger Braunschweig

“…Abstract The Fischer carbene synthesis, involving the conversion of a transition metal (TM)-bound CO ligand to a carbene ligand of the form [=C(OR’)R] (R, R’ = organyl groups), is one of the seminal reactions in the history of organometallic chemistry. Carbonyl complexes of p-block elements, of the form [E(CO)n] (E = main-group fragment), are much less abundant than their TM cousins; this scarcity and the general instability of low-valent p-block species means that replicating the historical reactions of TM carbonyls is often very difficult. …”

Application of N-heterocyclic carbene–Cu(I) complexes as catalysts in organic synthesis: a review by Nosheen Beig, Varsha Goyal, Raj K. Bansal

“…NHCs constitute a well-established class of new ligands in organometallic chemistry. Although initially NHCs were regarded as pure σ-donor ligands, later experimental and theoretical studies established the presence of a significant back donation from the d-orbital of the metal to the π* orbital of the NHC. …”

Convenient solution route to alkylated pentalene ligands: New metal monoalkylpentalenyl complexes by Jones, S, Roussel, P, Hascall, T, O'Hare, D

“…Carbene-induced rearrangement of 8,8-dibromobicyclo[5.1.0]octa-2,4-dienes and subsequent in situ deprotonation of the dihydropentalenes formed represents a straightforward and versatile solution route to pentalene ligands for use in organometallic chemistry. We report here the synthesis of 6-alkyl-substituted 8,8-dibromobicyclo[5.1.0]octa-2,4-dienes and their rearrangement to give correspondingly substituted pentalene ligands. …”
