A species that transfers carbene-like bonding reactivity without requiring an isolated free carbene. Its reaction depends on its metal or other associated group as well as its substituents.
A metal-associated carbene-like reactive centre. Loss of nitrogen from a diazo precursor can generate a centre capable of alkene cyclopropanation; the catalyst and substituents influence its selectivity.
