On the Redox Properties of the Dimers of Thiazol-2-ylidenes That Are Relevant for Radical Catalysis
{{output}}
We report the isolation and study of dimers stemming from popular thiazol-2-ylidene organocatalysts. The model featuring 2,6-di(isopropyl)phenyl (Dipp) N-substituents was found to be a stronger reducing agent (Eox = -0.8 V vs SCE) than bis(thiazol-2-ylidenes) ... ...
