The strain in the bis(carbene) complex induces facile carbene dissociation and the formation of a catalytically active site for alcohol oxidation.enRhodium porphyrin synthonsPorphyrin distortionDearomatizationAlcohol oxidationCatalysisSpringloaded porphyrin NHC hybrid rhodium(III) complexes: carbene dissociation and oxidation catalysisJournal Article50263488349010.1039/C4CC00497C2015-05-07https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ie/
