In Crystallo Synthesis of a Triplet Silver Nitrene

Key Points

• To explore ligand-controlled selectivity in Ag-catalyzed nitrene transfer catalysis.
• Synthesis of a mononuclear triplet nitrene of silver (Ag) using templating techniques.
• Evaluation of ligand effects on nitrene selectivity during catalysis.
• The study successfully isolated a triplet nitrene of Ag.
• Ligand variations impacted selectivity in nitrene transfer reactions.
