  • Gold complexes for catalysIS and preparation thereof
    Patent number: 7767841
    Abstract: A number of cationic gold(I) and neutral gold(III) complexes have been synthesized and found to be stabilized by the use of N-heterocyclic carbene ligands. These species are often employed as in situ-generated reactive intermediates in gold catalyzed organic transformations. An isolated, well-defined cationic species was tested in gold mediated carbene transfer reactions from ethyl diazoacetate.
