We report the synthesis of nine new <i>N</i>-heterocyclic carbene gold bifluoride complexes starting from the corresponding <i>N</i>-heterocyclic carbene gold hydroxides. A new methodology to access <i>N,N'</i>-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene gold(I) fluoride starting from <i>N,N'</i>-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene gold(I) hydroxide and readily available potassium bifluoride is also reported. These gold bifluorides were shown to be efficient catalysts in the hydrofluor ...[more]
