Abstract

N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have been utilized as ligands of metal complexes to catalyze C–C, C–H, C–O, and C–N bond formation reactions. Herein, we present the development of novel supported NHC-Ag(I) complexes as catalysts for Borono-Minisci reactions. Kinetic and cyclic voltammetric studies have evidenced how the structure of both the ligand and complex influence the Ag(I)/Ag(II) redox potential and the reaction efficiency providing a complementary tactic to homo-geneous approaches.
