(Chemical Equation Presented) Efficient dinuclear catalysts: A complex of {Rh 2 (OAc) 4} with two N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) at the axial positions catalyzes the arylation of aldehydes (see picture; R= alkyl, aryl). DFT calculations reveal subtle stereoelectronic effects resulting from the NHC coordination to the dirhodium (II) complex and suggest that complexes with one axial NHC ligand are the catalytically active species.
