Mechanical forces induced by ball-milling agitation enabled the highly efficient and widely applicable synthesis of Cu-carbene complexes from <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>-diaryl-imidazolium salts and metallic copper. The required amount of gaseous dioxygen and insoluble copper could be reduced down to stoichiometric quantities, while reaction rates clearly outperformed those obtained in solution. Utilisation of Cu(0) as the copper source enabled the application of this approach to a wide array of <i>N</i>, ...[more]
