It focuses on the dynamic simulations of carbene reaction. The chapter explores the general theme of organocatalysis by car-benes. It presents a short overview of the use of diaminocyclopropylidene. The chapter highlights the fact that organocatalysis by carbene is far from being restricted to N–heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). It describes the oxidative homocoupling of pyridine-substituted NHC in the coordination sphere of copper. Diazoesters are still among the most relevant precursors of transition-metal car-benoids. Intermolecular NHC–catalysed reactions initiated by the umpolung of an aldehyde continue to be a powerful strategy for the construction of polycyclic skeletons. Computational methods have been used to investigate the formation and the chemical reactivity profile of various sulfonyl nitrenes. The chapter describes the flash vacuum thermolysis (FVT) chemistry and matrix photochemistry of diverse (hetero)aryl nitrenes.
