Metal-Dependent Umpolung Reactivity of Carbenes Derived from Cyclopropenes

Summary: Metal carbenes, divalent carbon species, are versatile intermediates that enable novel synthetic pathways. These species exhibit either electrophilic or nucleophilic character, depending on the carbene and metal fragments. Although the metal carbene reactivity is regulated by the metal, the...
