29. Cross experiments are in progress to rule out fast, reversible NHC dissociation, acetylide ligand exchange, and formation of dinuclear complexes.
30. With a π-acceptor ligand instead of a strong donor ligand, such as an N-heterocyclic carbene, a coordination number of 3 at a 16-valence-electron copper complex would certainly be a viable alternative for intermediates in click catalysis.
