自从E.O.Fischer于1964年开创过渡金属卡宾配合物化学以来,作为金属有机化学的前沿领域之一,卡宾配合物化学一直受到人们的极为关注。近年来对于各种卡宾配合物的合成,及它们在有机合成中的应用的研究有了较大的进展。本文详细报道了各种常用的卡宾配合物的合成方法,卡宾配合物发生的各种奇特的反应,近年发展较快的卡宾配合物在天然产物合成中的应用以及卡宾配合物在催化化学中的应用。 Since E.O.Fischer pioneered the transition metal carbene complex chemistry in 1964, as one of the leading fields of metal organic chemistry, carbene complex chemistry has drawn great attention. In recent years, a great progress has been made in the synthesis of various carbene complexes and their application in organic synthesis. In this paper, we report in detail the synthesis methods of various carbene complexes, various peculiar reactions of carbene complexes, the rapid development of carbene complexes in natural product synthesis and the application of carbene complexes in catalytic chemistry application.
