TLDR
In this article, an improved synthesis of the title compounds was reported, and the N,N'-dialkylthioureas 1 with 3-hydroxy-2-butanone gave the imidazole-2(3H)-thiones 2 which on treatment with potassium in boiling tetrahydrofuran give the IMidazol-2ylidenes 3 in excellent yields
Abstract
An improved synthesis of the title compounds is reported. Reaction of the N,N'-dialkylthioureas 1 with 3-hydroxy-2-butanone gives the imidazole-2(3H)-thiones 2 which on treatment with potassium in boiling tetrahydrofuran give the imidazol-2-ylidenes 3 in excellent yields

Stabilization of a Transient Diorganogermylene by an N-Heterocyclic Carbene

TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis of a carbene-stabilized transient germylene is presented, and the resulting complex liberates free germylenes upon heating, forms a stable adduct with BH3, and reacts with MeLi to displace the free free Germylene.

Recent developments in the chemistry of 1,3,2-diazaborolines-(2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaboroles)

TL;DR: In this paper, the 2p z -orbital on the boron center with the π* orbital of attached organic π-systems proved to be responsible for unique absorption and emission characteristics of 1,3,2-diazaborolinyl functionalized biphenyls, thiophenes, and dithiophenses.

Reaction of 1,3‐Dialkyl‐4,5‐dimethylimidazol‐2‐ylidenes with 2‐Bromo‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,3,2‐diazaboroles (Alkyl=iPr and tBu)

TL;DR: In this article, a cyclocondensation reaction of the corresponding dilithiated RN:CR1CR1:NR with BBr3 in hexane was conducted in ether solvents, and the diboroxane II resulted as the main product.
