Popis: Whereas stable imi-dazolyl-2- and 1,3-thiazol-2-ylidenes are accessible, isothia-zol-3-ylidenes4 could not beisolated until now.This isnotsurprising when one compares some thermodynamic andkineticcharacteristicsfortypicalcarbenereactionsof1,2,and4(R=H)estimatedbymeansofabinitiocalculations(forthedetails of the quantum chemical calculations, see the Sup-porting Information). The reaction enthalpies and freereaction enthalpies for the carbene dimerization (Table1)indicatethatthetendencytoformdimersismuchhigherforthe singlet isothiazol-3-ylidenes than for the other types ofheterocyclic carbenes. Hints of the lower stability of theisothiazol-3-ylidenescanalsobeobtainedfromthecalculatedfree reaction enthalpies and free activation enthalpies(Table2) for the interconversionbetween carbenesand the
