The synthesis and X-ray structure of the first cobalt carbonyl-NHC dimer. implications for the use of NHCs in hydroformylation catalysis.
The synthesis, X-ray structure, and catalytic properties of the first cobalt carbonyl dimer supported by a N-heterocyclic carbene ligand Co(2)(CO)(6)(IMes)(2) [IMes = 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] is reported.
