  • Description: Cyclic (alkyl)- and (aryl)-(amino)carbenes (CAACs and CAArCs) are stronger σ-donors and π-acceptors than imidazol-2-ylidenes and imidazolidin-2-ylidenes, the well-known N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). Consequently, they form strong bonds with coinage metals and stabilize both low and high oxidation states. This Review shows that CAACs and CAArCs have allowed for the isolation of copper and gold complexes that were believed to be only transient intermediates. This has not only allowed for a better understanding of the mechanism of known processes but has also led to the development of novel coinage metal-catalyzed reactions. In addition to their role in homogeneous catalysis, CAAC and CAArC coinage metal complexes have recently found applications in medicinal chemistry, as well as in materials science. When possible, the performance of CAAC and CAArC ligands are compared with those of classical NHCs.
