Abstract:The quest for cost-efficient and high-performance electrocatalysts towards electrocatalytic water splitting is a key and an interdisciplinary area of study. Considerable progress is being driven by developments in the field of energy research. In a fundamental study, we have synthesized NHC precursors (6 and 7) and corresponding metal-NHC complexes of silver(I)− (8 and 9) and ruthenium(II)-(10 and 11) of a N-heterocyclic carbene-based ligand type incorporating coumarins. These NHC precursors and metal-NHC comp… Show more
