Abstract
Isocyanides ligating medium to high-valent electron-poor metal centers can undergo activation toward alpha -nucleophilic addition to afford a variety of aminocarbene complexes with either heterocyclic or acyclic aminocarbene ligands. These reactions as well as the structural and electronic propertie s of such products are reviewed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
