Modern Synthetic Methods & Chiral Europe: Reaction to Reality

23 - 25 May 2011, Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Introduction

This 3-day conference provides discovery, medicinal and process chemists with a forum to meet with academia to discuss novel organic synthetic methods useful in research and development. We focus on key transformations, e.g. carbon-carbon bond forming reactions, oxidation and reduction, formation and reactions of heterocyclic molecules and biotransformations. We also focus on chiral technology, including: asymmetric chemocatalysis, biocatalysis, new analytical and separation techniques, and the development of important chiral pharmaceuticals.
