We present a concise overview on chiral monodentate NHC-metal structures that accomplish high levels of enantioselectivity (≥90% ee) in catalysis and give guidelines to their use and thoughts on the future of this field.

A Pd site initiates hydrogen peroxide decomposition by adsorbing one ‘O’ followed by splitting of O–H bond. Meanwhile, a Pt site finally completes the decomposition process by enabling desorption of the incipient O2 species.
