Introduction Carbenes play important roles both as reactive intermediates and also as ligands; consequently, considerable effort has been devoted to understanding their molecular and electronic structures. Special interest is associated with carbenes that feature the attachment of donor groups to the carbenic carbon since they behave as nucleophiles and, in some instances, can be isolated.

Although 1 bears an obvious relationship to the electron-rich olefin, 3, the latter is not in equilibrium with the corresponding carbene. Wanzlick et al. also pre- dicted that carbene 4 (RЈϭR ϭ Ph) would possess enhanced stability due to the possibility of aromatic resonance and demonstrated the intermediacy of this species by C-deprotonation of imidazolium salt 5 Ϫ Ϫ t (RЈϭR ϭ Ph; X ϭ ClO4 ) with KO Bu, followed by trapping with phenylisothiocyanate (2) or mercuric chloride (3)(vide infra). How- ever, several years were to elapse before Arduengo et al. (4) achieved the first isolation of a stable, crystalline nucleophilic carbene, 4 (RЈϭH; R ϭ adamantyl) by C-deprotonation of the corresponding bis(1-adamantyl)imidazolium chloride with KH. This important de- velopment prompted a flurry of activity in this area of chemistry. For example, a completely new synthetic route to stable nucleophilic car- benes has been developed by Kuhn et al. (5), viz. the reduction of thiones with potassium in THF, and Herrmann et al. (6) demon- strated that a liquid ammonia/THF solvent system is very effective for the NaH deprotonation of imidazolium salts at relatively low tem- peratures. The range of stable nucleophilic carbenes has also ex- panded significantly, not only in terms of the elaboration of substitu- REACTIONS OF NUCLEOPHILIC CARBENES WITH MAIN GROUP COMPOUNDS 3 ents on structures of type 4, but also from the standpoint of new structural types (7). The isolation of saturated derivatives of types 1 (R ϭ Mes) (8) and 6 (R ϭ iPr) (9) implies that the presence of a car- bon–carbon double bond is not, in fact, a prerequisite for stability. Moreover, Alder et al. (10) have shown that, with the appropriate sub- stituents,
