Quantification of the steric and electronic properties of ligands is an important task for the development of highly effective chemical transformations when using a metal complex as a catalyst. In this study, we used silver and iridium complexes to perform systematic analyses to quantify the steric and electronic properties of original NHCs, which we refer to as DHASI and BCPSI. In addition to two silver chloride complexes that we previously reported, two novel BCPSIiPrAgCl and BCPSICyAgCl complexes were prepared and used for XRD studies to quantify the steric properties via use of a method referred to as the percent buried volume (%VBur). We then synthesized 6 IrCl(CO)2(HNC) complexes to calculate the TEP values, and the results indicated that the influences of two different core bicyclic motifs were somewhat unclear, while the influences of different N-substituents were readily apparent. Finally, the original NHCs were applied to a copper catalyzed allylic arylation of cinnamyl bromide with PhMgBr. The regioselectivity of the substitutions suggested that the steric environments existing at relatively long distances from the bound copper also exerted a considerable amount of influence over the catalytic properties.
