Abstract :
The interaction of N,N′-bismesitylimidazolin-2-yl (IMes) with alcohols is discussed. NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography were used to examine the influence of solvent and alcohol on this interaction. The stabilizing effect of these interactions may be used for the storage of nitrogen–heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) since removal of the volatiles liberates the NHC.
