A series of well-defined copper(I) complexes bearing ring-expanded N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands has been applied to the azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. The obtained results notably showed that the six-membered NHC ligands outperform well-established five-membered ones. [CuI(Mes-6)] displayed a remarkable catalytic activity while respecting the strict criteria for click reactions.
一系列带有扩环N-杂环卡宾（NHC）配体的结构明确的铜（I）配合物已被应用于叠氮化物-炔烃环加成反应。所得结果显著表明，六元NHC配体的性能优于已确立的五元配体。[CuI（Mes-6）]在符合点击反应严格标准的同时表现出显著的催化活性。
