N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC’s) and cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbenes (CAAC’s) have become a ubiquitous ligand class for metals across the periodic table providing robust complexes with wide applications including catalysis.[1] The possibilities of incorporating various neutral/anionic donor arms might offer an added advantage by chelation.[2] Main group chemistry supported by carbene ligand platform has witnessed a tremendous progress over the last couple of decades including a significant contribution towards homogeneous catalysis.[3] In this poster, we showcase three different donor-functionalized NHC and CAAC ligand frameworks, neutral and monoanionic, containing fluorenyl and pyridyl side arms to apply on main group metals such as group 2 (Mg, Ca), 12 (Zn) and 13 (Al, Ga) in the context of catalysis.
