title: The active role of NHC ligands in platinum-mediated tandem hydroboration-cross coupling reactions.
abstract: Stable N-heterocyclic platinum-carbene complexes are the first example of platinum-mediated regioselective H-B addition to vinylarenes and alkynes, allowing consecutive cross coupling reactions with the same catalytic system.
