Dr. Van Hoveln is interested in the chemistry of organometallic complexes and their use as catalysts for new organic transformations. More specifically, his research focuses on using inexpensive and benign first row transition metals rather than the precious metals that are typically used in catalysis. Current work focuses on using copper to incorporate boranes and silanes into organic molecules which can be used as intermediate functional groups for further reactivity. Work in his lab involves learning a number of traditional organic techniques including handling pyrophoric reagents, performing reactions under an inert atmosphere, and using an NMR spectrometer.
