Abstract

A super pyrazolate: Deprotonation of the flanking hydrogen of metal complexes of mesoionic carbenes (MICs) offers a simple and general route for the preparation of bimetallic complexes of a 1,2-dihapto anionic dicarbene ligand that is isoelectronic with widely used pyrazolate ligands, while conferring greater electron donation and stronger M-L bonds (see scheme).
