Cool! Could we maybe use polymerisable backbones on the NHCs to do this in just two steps? 🤔 #NHC #Carbenes #Coatings

- Can we always trust/use the infamous HOMO-LUMO gap? - What is the best method to gauge the electronics of NHCs? This and other questions I tried to address just before I finished my MSc and now it’s published in ChemPhysChem!

N‐Heterocyclic Carbenes: A Benchmark Study on their Singlet–Triplet Energy Gap as a Critical Molecular Descriptor
The adiabatic singlet–triplet gap is proposed as a critical and sensitive descriptor for understanding the nature and diversity of N-heterocyclic carbenes. This approach facilitates the rationalizati....
