Doerrer Group Research Gets Cover of Organometallics
The work of Steve Hannigan (3rd year BU graduate student ) and Dr. June Lum (PhD 2012) from the Doerrer group is featured on the June 24, 2013, cover of the ACS’ journal, Organometallics. A new “Room Temperature Stable Organocuprate Copper(III) Complex” has been prepared with relevance to catalytic C-H bond activation processes and relative stabilities of copper organometallic species. Crystallographic collaborators include Dr. Jeffrey Bacon (X-ray Crystallography Specialist in the Chemical Instrumentation Center), who designed the cover, and Prof. Arnold Rheingold, Dr. Curtis Moore, and Dr. James A. Golen in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of California, San Diego.
