Ultrathin 2D cuprate with active periodic copper single sites, a new catalyst for Chan-lam coupling - EurekAlert

In a paper published in National Science Review, an international team of scientists designed the new route for the synthesis of atomically thin 2D cuprate layers containing abundant periodic copper single site arrays for efficient Chan-lam coupling reactions.
