Catalytic C=N bond metathesis of carbodiimides by group 4 and 5 imido complexes supported by guanidinate ligands.
A family of guanidinate-supported imido metal complexes are novel, effective catalysts for C=N metathesis of alkyl and aryl carbodiimides and evidence suggests that this reaction proceeds via a sequential addition/elimination pathway.
