TL;DR: A series of seven-membered ditopic ringexpanded N-heterocyclic carbene precursors, bearing sterically demanding and electron-rich aryl groups, were synthesized in moderate yields via the reaction of 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(bromomethyl)benzene with the corresponding N,N′-diarylformamidines in the presence of K2CO3 in acetonitrile under an air atmosphere as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, a new type magnetic nano Fe3O4@SiO2@NHC@Pd-MNPs heterogeneous catalyst was fabricated and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), XPS, Energy Disperse X-ray analysis (EDX), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA), and Scanning Electron microscopy(SEM).

TL;DR: In this paper, a new series of ringexpanded six-and seven-membered N-heterocyclic carbene precursors and their transition metal complexes were synthesized.

TL;DR: In this article, the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction for aryl bromides with substituted arylsboronic acids at room temperature in i-PrOH/water was investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, new benzimidazolium salts 1a-d having methylpyridine group on the side chain, have been synthesized and reacted with Ag2O to produce Ag(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes 2a-c.
