In this contribution, we give a brief overview Of Studies on the bonding between transition metals (TM) and N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) and report on a systematic bond analysis of the bonding of 1,3-diorganyl-imidazol-2-ylidenes (R(2)Im) in a series of nickel, palladium and platinum complexes D-2h- and D-2d-M(H(2)Im)(2) to exemplify the dependence of the TM-NHC bonding on the group-10 transition metal. Furthermore complexes with seemingly different complex fragment group electronegativities, i.e., [Ni(R(2)Im)(3)], [Ni(R(2)Im)(2)], [Ni(R(2)Im)(CO)], [Ni(R(2)Im)(CO)(2)], and [Ni(R(2)Im)(CO)(3)] have been analyzed, a series that provides theoretical evidence that the bonding of 1,3-diorganyl-imidazol-2-ylidene ligands to metal-complex fragments strongly depends on the nature of the ligand environment. Our results confirm the currently accepted idea that NHCs are not pure sigma-donors. In the series of complexes examined here pi-contribution is at least 10% and LIP to 40%, depending on the transition metal complex fragment bonded to the carbene. The dependence of the bonding mechanism on the R substituent in R(2)Im has also been investigated. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
