contents Recent Synthetic Methods for N ‐Heterocyclic Carbene Precursors: Beyond Cyclization as the Key Step † Wenkun Chen Jiamiao Jin Junmin Zhang Bingbing Dong Bin Yu Xuan Huang Yonggui Robin Chi Chinese Journal of Chemistry Comprehensive Summary The N ‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC), as an electron‐rich nucleophilic species, constitutes an important class of ligands for transition metals and plays a key role in organocatalysis. Consequently, diverse NHCs have been developed in recent years. Moreover, to access NHCs with novel scaffolds, innovative synthetic methods of NHC precursors have emerged. Given the prevalence of carbene precursors in organometallic and organocatalytic processes, this review summarizes the synthesis of imidazolium, imidazolinium, thiazolium, and triazolium salts. Finally, we propose future research directions for developing highly efficient novel NHCs. Key Scientists 10.1002/cjoc.70513 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
