OrganoCuprates?
editR-X > R-Cu-X ? X=I does not exist as Cupric compound. More likely 2Cu + R-I > R-Cu + CuI as a complex. Shjacks45 (talk) 04:09, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

Peer Review
editLead: It doesn't seem like a new lead was added? The original lead, however, was very good, so I think this is okay.
Content: Content added is very informative! I enjoyed reading about the history of the Ullmann reaction, as well as how it was developed. I think adding more section headings could be useful: the section added seems like a history section, but the current article does not have a history section.
Tone and Balance: Tone is neutral and not biased towards any side!
Sources and References: Might be good to add a few more references, especially since they're discussing a very chemical topic. I think the history section would benefit a lot from additional references, as well as the explanation of the mechanism! As well, the addition of internal links to other wikipedia pages could be useful.
Images and Media: No images or media is added, but the original page has quite a few images so this is okay!
Overall Impressions: Could be good to title different the sections with subtitles to emphasize separation! For example, Current State can be a subheading of History and Development. As well, adding a diagram of the mechanism could be very helpful rather than just explaining it in words. I think the history context of this reaction is very interesting, and I'm glad it was added!
