Introduction

Co-organised by the Royal Society of Chemistry and the National Organic Symposium Trust (NOST), this conference features some of the leading organic chemistry researchers from Europe and India.
 
NOST’s highly-regarded Organic Chemistry Conference has been held regularly in venues around India since 1988, providing a great forum for international researchers to build strong collaborations with leading organic chemists in India. The Royal Society of Chemistry has a strong and long-standing relationship with NOST, and we now bring this successful meeting format to the UK for the first time.
 
Themes include:

• Synthetic methodology
• Total synthesis
• Bioorganic chemistry
• Physical organic chemistry
