This thesis focuses on exploring the reactivity of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyst-derived acylazolium intermediates. In particular, the thesis is mainly focused on NHC-catalyzed dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) and cycloaddition reactions through formation of acylazolium intermediates. It con...
