Abstract
The first chiral tetracarbene indium(III) complexes have been synthesized by employing a rigid dianionic macrocyclic tetra-NHC ligand. The macrocyclic indium tetra-NHC bromide and ethoxide complexes are structurally similar to analagous salen complexes. The indium ethoxide complex effectively promotes living ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone at room temperature.
