Synthesis of new polymetallic carbene complexes: Uracil analogs

The easy cycloaddition of ureas with alkynyl alkoxy biscarbene complexes afforded, in fairly good yields, new biscarbene uracil analogs. X-ray structural data is reported for the dimethyluracil biscarbene complex. By changing the reaction conditions, a new non symmetric complex was obtained whose reaction with ethylenediamine afforded a new tetrakis amino carbene complex.
