Dynamic processes of the first NHC-substituted rhenium heptahydrides [ReH 7 (NHC) 2 ]

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Possible geometries and fluxional mechanisms of three [ReH 7 (NHC) 2 ] complexes (NHC = IMes (1), IMesCl 2 (2), and BIMes (3)) are presented. A new process named “η 2 -quadratic twist” has been identified. The complexes presented can perform C–H activation.
