In the search of smarter routes to control the conditions of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHCs) formation, a two-component air-stable NHC photogenerating system is reported. It relies on the irradiation at 365 nm of a mixture of 2-isopropylthioxanthone (ITX) with 1,3-bis(mesityl)imidazoli(ni)um tetraphenylborate. The
