Recent advances in S-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene ligands: From the synthesis of azolium salts and metal complexes to applications

TLDR
In this paper, a review summarizes the recent progress in the field of S-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene ligands and their metal complexes and discusses the syntheses of the azolium precursors and of the corresponding metal complexes as a function of five different S-containing chemical groups examined here: thiolate, thioether, thiophene, sulfonate and thione.

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.

N-Heterocyclic Carbenes†‡

TL;DR: The chemistry of N-heterocyclic carbenes has long been limited to metal coordination compounds derived from azolium precursors, a development that was started by Ofele and Wanzlick in 1968 as discussed by the authors.
