A series of copper complexes (3–6) stabilized by 1,2,3-triazole-tethered N-heterocyclic carbene ligands have been prepared via simple reaction of imidazolium salts with copper powder in good yields. The structures of bi- and trinuclear copper complexes were fully characterized by NMR, elemental analysis (EA), and X-ray crystallography. In particular, [Cu2(L2)2](PF6)2 (3) and [Cu2(L3)2](PF6)2 (4) were dinuclear copper complexes. Complexes [Cu3(L4)2](PF6)3 (5) and [Cu3(L5)2](PF6)3 (6) consist of a triangular Cu3 core. These structures vary depending on the imidazolium backbone and N substituents. The copper–NHC complexes tested are highly active for the Cu-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction in an air atmosphere at room temperature in a CH3CN solution. Complex 4 is the most efficient catalyst among these polynuclear complexes in an air atmosphere at room temperature.

Complexes comprising a so-called abnormal carbene ligand, which displays pronounced mesoionic character, have recently been shown to be competent catalyst precursors for bond activation processes and oxidative transformations, including base-free alcohol oxidation and water oxidation. In this highlight we propose that these abnormal carbene ligands are not just useful spectator ligands but also actively participate in the bond activation step. This mode of action is partially based on the exceptionally strong donor properties of the ligand and, specifically, on the mesoionic character of these abnormal carbenes. The mesoionic properties provide a reservoir for charges and holes and thus induce efficient ligand-metal cooperativity, which is beneficial in particular for oxidation catalysis that involves concerted proton and electron transfer processes.
