center allows for applications in small-molecule activation, organometallic catalysis, and the stabilization of unusual oxidation states in main group element complexes.

Historical Background

Carbodicarbene Precursors

The conceptual foundation for CDCs lies in the study of carbones, a class of carbon(0) compounds in which a central carbon atom is stabilized by two strong ?-donor ligands.
