Organometallic
Chemistry
25–30
July 2004, Vancouver, Canada
The
21st International Conference on Organometallic Chemistry
will be held on the campus of the University of British Columbia
in Vancouver, Canada. All modern advances and trends in organometallic
chemistry will be discussed.
A
combination of plenary and invited lectures over three parallel
sessions will form the basis of the meeting. Oral submissions
and posters sessions will also be incorporated. The lectures
will cover these broadly defined subjects:
- organometallic
derivatives of the transition metals (including 4f/5f elements)
- organometallic
derivatives of the main group elements
- metal-mediated
organic synthesis and catalysis
- theoretical
methods in organometallic chemistry
- physical
methods in organometallic chemistry
The
plenary lectures will be presented by Guy Bertrand (France/USA),
Tamio Hayashi (Japan), Richard R. Schrock (USA), Douglas W.
Stephan (Canada), and Gerard van Koten (Netherlands). In addition,
30 invited speakers have agreed to present their current work
on a wide variety of topics. The deadline for submission of
abstracts is 31 March 2004.
The
University of British Columbia is situated on a forested peninsula
with spectacular views of the ocean and mountains, yet is
only 20 km (13 miles) from Vancouver International Airport
and 10 km (6 miles) from downtown Vancouver. Social events
will include an opening reception on 25 July and a traditional
First Nations salmon barbecue to be held in the spectacular
setting of UBC’s Museum of Anthropology on 29 July.
