Abstract

The chapter describes the use of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of d-block metals for the transfer hydrogenation of C=O, C=C, C≡C, and C=N bonds, and nitro groups. Emphasis is placed on the most active metal–NHC combinations and those that incorporate valuable properties, including ease of use and inexpensive starting materials. The source of hydrogen is in most cases propan-2-ol, but formic acid/formate salts are also used.

Key words

N-heterocyclic carbenes - ruthenium - rhodium - iridium - ketones - aldehydes - alkenes - alkynes - imines - transfer hydrogenation - asymmetric hydrogenation
