N-heterocyclic carbenes: a new concept in organometallic catalysis.

TL;DR: N-Heterocyclic carbenes have become universal ligands in organometallic and inorganic coordination chemistry as mentioned in this paper, and they not only bind to any transition metal, be it in low or high oxidation states, but also to main group elements such as beryllium, sulfur, and iodine.

A 2dvEv- bit distributed algorithm for the directed Euler trail problem

TL;DR: The algorithm can be used as a building block for solving other distributed graph problems, and can be slightly modified to run on a strongly-connected diagraph for generating the existent Euler trail or to report that no Euler trails exist.

Synthesis and Applications of RuCl2(CHR‘)(PR3)2: The Influence of the Alkylidene Moiety on Metathesis Activity

TL;DR: In this paper, the reactions of RuCl2(PPh3)3 with a number of diazoalkanes were surveyed, and alkylidene transfer was observed for RCHN2 and various para-substituted aryl diazalkanes p-C6H4X CHN2.

Synthesis of molybdenum imido alkylidene complexes and some reactions involving acyclic olefins

TL;DR: In this paper, a precursor to imido alkylidene complexes that is related to 2 has been prepared by the sequence MoO{sub 2} {yields} MoO(NAr)Cl{sub 3} (dme = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) and Me{ sub 3}SiNHAr (Ar = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl) yields Mo(C-t-Bu)(NHAr), which upon treatment with a catalytic amount of NEt-sub 3] is transformed into
