N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are commonly prepared by deprotonation of azolium salts using strong anionic bases. This reaction is often unselective, yielding alkali metal NHC complexes or dimerized NHCs. Alternatively, free NHCs are obtained by the dechlorination of 2-chloroazolium salts using electron-rich phosphines.

A problem with this diversity is that they often differ, among other things, in context, platform, sampling process, collection strategy, and labeling schema. There have been surveys on these datasets, but they compare the datasets only superficially.

The X-ray diffraction structures of the empty cage as well as the cages complexed with both fullerenes are described.

The analysis of two alleles carrying T-DNA insertions at comparable positions has led to conflicting conclusions concerning the impact of THE1 signaling on growth. Here we confirm that, unlike the1-3 and other the1 alleles in which cellular responses to genetic or pharmacological inhibition of cellulose synthesis are attenuated, the1-4 showed enhanced responses, including growth inhibition, ectopic lignification, and stress gene expression.
