Nanoclusters in Ionic Liquids: Evidence for N-Heterocyclic Carbene Formation from Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquids Detected by 2H NMR

Abstract

The mystery of how 1,3-substituted imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) can provide high stabilization for transition-metal(0) nanoclusters, that is, in the absence of the usual strongly coordinating anions, has been probed. 2H NMR product and kinetic studies of 1,3-substituted imidazolium ILs under D2 reveal that nanocluster-catalyzed H/D exchange occurs at the 2- (as well as at the 4-, 5-, and 8-) C-H positions of the imidazolium cation. The results (i) provide compelling evidence that N-heterocyclic carbene formation and ligation of nanoclusters is occurring in ILs; and (ii) argue that N-heterocyclic carbenes merit further investigation as heretofore unappreciated stabilizers of transition-metal nanoclusters.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
