Graphical Abstract

NHCs in der Nanowelt: Aus (Cyclooctadien)(cyclooctatrien)ruthenium(0) gebildete Ruthenium-Nanopartikel wurden durch N-heterocyclische Carbene (NHCs) stabilisiert. Festkörper-NMR-Spektroskopie gab sowohl über die Koordination der NHC-Liganden an der Oberfläche der Partikel als auch über deren Oberflächenreaktivität Aufschluss.
