Why does nature use tricopper center to perform oxygen reduction? Check out our J. Am. Chem. Soc. paper on bond dissociation energy, E1/2, pKa of tricopper clusters at all oxidation and protonation states! Congratulations to Saikat!

We have demonstrated John Callahan the stepwise oxidative addition of Cu(I) to well-defined Cu(III) via an aryl-radical-enabled pathway, a step proposed in many Cu-catalyzed reactions. Huge thanks to Shiliang Tian and ZhangLabOSU for the EPR studies. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Excited to share the preprint of our latest work, led by graduate students James Zhang James Zhang and Anthony Huls Anthony Huls, on engineering nonheme iron enzymes for new-to-nature transformations! We evolved hydroxymandelate synthase from Amycolatopsis orientalis (AoHMS) to
Are you a #biochemist looking for a #tenuretrack #facultyjob? My colleague Anthony Grillo and I are co-chairing the search & we are looking for an excellent colleague to join our growing and thriving department UC-Chem University of Cincinnati UC_ArtSci #Chemjobs tinyurl.com/2ukfwxt7
Check out our most recent work in Chemical Science. We report a photochemical approach where ligated amine-borane radicals serve as XAT mediators for the metal free, Sonogashira-like alkynylation of alkyl halides using a SOMOphilic approach⬇️ pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
Did not expect to receive a crystal plaque for the promotion.😃University of Cincinnati Chemistry

Our work on nonheme iron enzyme-catalyzed olefin trifluoromethylative difunctionalization is now published in J. Am. Chem. Soc. ! (link: pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102… Previous ChemRxiv version chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…). This study was led by graduate students James Zhang & Anthony Huls , with key
Congrats to Margaret Margaret Ball on her new publication in Angewandte Chemie in collaboration with Szymczak Group on the role of electron transfer in copper-promoted trifluoromethylation! Ohio State Chemistry and Biochemistry onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
We do Ni too!!! Please check this article published in Inorganic Chemistry in which our awesome undergrad student Daniel Ye (1st author!) describes the synthesis, characterization and PCET reactivity of a mononuclear NiOH system in three oxidation states. Enjoy! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
Thrilled to share our newest work on the enantioconvergent synthesis of alkyl fluorides with KF, made possible by a synergistic combination of chiral urea and onium salt catalysts. Out today in Nature Catalysis doi.org/10.1038/s41929… Congrats to Claire Dooley and all of the team!
Our latest Al-Fe research is published in J. Am. Chem. Soc.. Led by my student Roushan Chemistry at UIC and our collaboration with Dan Ess of BYU, we are starting to map the chemistry of Al(II) through this mild approach! doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5…
