This metal is used to catalyze a process discovered by Rochow in which methyl chloride is reacted with silicon metal to produce chlorosilanes. It is complexed with tetramethyl ethylenediamine and reoxidized with oxygen gas in one of multiple reactions that produce 1,3-diynes using this metal as a catalyst. It is also used in a catalyst for industrial methanol production, and that same catalyst is used for the low-temperature portion of the water-gas shift reaction. In biochemistry, this metal is found with zinc in a (*) superoxide dismutase, and two hemes and two sites containing this metal are found in cytochrome C o

In biochemistry, this metal is found with zinc in a (*) superoxide dismutase, and two hemes and two sites containing this metal are found in cytochrome C oxidase. This metal is consumed in a reaction where aryl halides are converted to symmetrical biaryl compounds as developed by Ullmann. For 10 points, name this transition metal whose iodide can be reacted with organolithium compounds to form Gilman reagents.
