Happy Thanksgiving! I am also glad to share that my second paper at Rutgers University–New Brunswick is officially published today @Chem. Commun. "Redox-active ligand promoted electrophile addition at cobalt" https://lnkd.in/em9sC3nk We demonstrate a redox-active ligand acts as a two-electron reservoir and promotes Co–CF3/F bond formation through ligand-to-substrate electron transfer which can be rationalized with their redox potentials. It is the application in organic reactions of our previously published work @Inorg. Chem. "Two-Electron Redox Tuning of Cyclopentadienyl Cobalt Complexes Enabled by the Phenylenediamide Ligand" https://lnkd.in/eMjQiZKs
