Abstract (300 words maximum)

N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) have been used in the past as versatile ligands for novel transition metal complexes. These organometallic complexes have been proven to be potent catalysts for a large number of important chemical processes such as olefin metathesis, carbon-carbon coupling reactions, polymerizations, etc. This project is directed towards the synthesis and characterization of a novel bidentate ligand that incorporates two NHC moieties as support for the development of new coinage complexes and for incorporation in supramolecular structures.
