Catalytically Relevant Organocopper(III) Complexes Formed through Aryl-Radical-Enabled Oxidative Addition J. Am. Chem. Soc. #Chemistry #Chemed #Science #TechnologyNews #news #technology #AcademicTwitter #ResearchPapers pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

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…

Happy Birthday Shiyu! We all surprised him by getting together to play pickleball with him; one of his favorite activities!

Congratualations Dr. Sam Carter! Yesterday she defended her thesis and was awarded her PhD! She has been an invaluable member of our lab and we are so happy and proud of her accomplishments. #PhD

Our first years Abbi, Andrew, and Emily have passed their qualifying exams!!! They all have had an impressive first year. Next stop candidacy!

Yesterday Chris defended his thesis and was awarded his PhD!! Congratulations Dr. Chris Walter, you have been a great chemist and an even greater mentor! We wish you well on your future endeavors!

Thrilled to receive the 2025 Harry Gray Award for Creative Work in Inorganic Chemistry! Huge shoutout to all the amazing past and present team members who made this happen Ohio State Chemistry and Biochemistry. Congrats to all the ACS National Award winners—can't wait to celebrate with everyone at ACS Spring

We are looking to recruit a new organic chemistry colleague Ohio State Come join our vibrant community! Tenure-track Assistant Professor: osu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/OSUCareers/job…

Excited to share our latest publication in Advanced Materials on high-voltage n-type organic cathode materials for aqueous Zn-Ion batteries Find out how TBA additives resolve the solubility issue of cyclopropanate Congrats to Jay and Abbi Ohio State Chemistry and Biochemistry ! 🙌🙌 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

We hope every lab enjoyed their Halloweekend! We sure did :)

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…

Happy Holidays to you and yours from the Zhang Lab!!

We had a great time representing THE Ohio State University Chemistry (alongside Dr. Christine Thomas) at the Inorganic Reaction Mechanisms GRC!!

This past week, we headed to ACS Spring 2025 in San Diego to be recognized for the Harry Gray Award for Creative Work in Inorganic Chemistry by a Young Investigator and present some new and exciting research! #ACSSpring2025 #CopperChemistry

Recently, Emily (2nd year), Margaret (4th year), Jeff (3rd year), and Ashleigh (1st year) shared their research at the 2025 Annual FOCUS Symposium at OSU. We had a great time learning about our peers’ work, attending workshops, and attending a Q&A panel led by women in chemistry!

This week at group meeting, we celebrated in true Zhang lab fashion: cake at 9 am. Happy birthday Shiyu!

The Zhang lab went 5/5 this spring with second-years Abbi, Andrew, and Emily passing candidacy and first-years Ashleigh and Jackson passing first-year orals. We are so proud of all they have accomplished and can’t wait to see what the future holds!

Congratulations to Dr. Maxwell Reese for the successful defense of his thesis on Cu-mediated C-N bond formation. He is invaluable to our lab and we are very proud of all he has accomplished!
