title: N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands and palladium in homogeneous cross-coupling catalysis: a perfect union.
abstract: Cross-coupling reactions using Pd-NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) catalysts are discussed in this critical review and examined in terms of catalytic activity and how these have permitted advances in the area as they developed (95 references).
