Carbones are a class of molecules containing a carbon atom in the 1D excited state with a formal oxidation state of zero where all four valence electrons exist as unbonded lone pairs.[1] These carbon-based compounds are of the formula CL2 where L is a strongly σ-donating ligand, typically a phosphine (carbodiphosphoranes) or a N-heterocyclic carbene/NHC (carbodicarbenes), that stabilises the central carbon atom through donor-acceptor bonds.[1] Carbones possess high-energy orbitals with both σ- and π-symmetry, making them strong Lewis bases and strong π-backdonor substituents.[2] Carbones possess high proton affinities[3][4] and are strong nucleophiles which allows them to function as ligands in a variety of main group and transition metal complexes.[5] Carbone-coordinated elements also exhibit a variety of different reactivities and catalyse various organic[6][7][8][9] and main group reactions.[10][11]
