Copper finally joins the metallocene club More than 70 years after ferrocene’s discovery, cuprocene fills a long-standing gap in the sandwich menu by Mark Peplow, special to C&EN

Cuprocene is the first neutral, stable copper metallocene, created by a team led by William J. Evans, an organometallic chemist at the University of California, Irvine. cen.acs.org/synthesis/cu...

During a rare SF Bay lightning and thunderstorm, nice to have a comfy place of refuge, says Brienne of Tarth. (who is of course descended from Dunk the Doberman)

good plan!!

Yeah Ashok!!

Ah! Yeah had we not gotten a dog we had considered getting an Argentine tegu. A few years back we got this little guy!

Hi Grace, had a savannah years ago. she was indeed very mean! so yes. But I can't really have a big lizard now cause of the big furry beast that roams the house!

I keep asking for a 35in monitor for christmas. maybe this is the year?

is it taught in the Walter White Center?

My quote of the day

Through this additional support, we must renew our commitment to provide talented young people with the opportunity to build scientific careers based on their curiosity, the same opportunity that was provided to me when I began my work.
