An Electronic conference for discussing recent developments in Organometallic Chemistry
Chemistry will be held during 30 June - 31 July 1997 on the Global Internet
using the World-Wide Web and electronic mail as the delivery mechanisms.
Scientific organisation will be under the auspices of
the Royal
Society of Chemistry. ECTOC-3 will continue the innovative style
introduced with ECTOC-1 and ECTOC-2 (ECHET96) conferences
in offering a low cost and near-instant
mechanism for discussing chemistry, with features such as full colour structure diagrams,
editable structures and reaction
schemes, rotatable 3D molecular images, index searches of conference proceedings,
contributed discussions by participants,
up to date access statistics for
articles, photographs submitted by participants and
other novel features.
The conference will take the form of keynote
articles, contributed articles and posters and discussions on all aspects of
organometallic chemistry, including synthetic and modelling areas. Abstracts for the
following keynotes have currently been received;
- Jonathan L Sessler, Philip A. Gale, VladimÍr Král, Vincent Lynch, John W. Genge, William
E. Allen, Christopher T. Brown, Andreas Gebauer, Nicolai A. Tvermoes, Petra I Sansom,
New Aspects of Calixpyrrole Chemistry
- Michael D. Mingos, Ramon Vilar, Mary McPartlin and Ian Scowen,
Reactivity Studies of [Pd2(m-Br)2(PBut3)2] and Structural Characterisation of the
Phosphine Cyclometallated Cluster
[Pd4(m-Br)3(m-CO)2(But2PCMe2CH2)(PBut3)2]
- John M. Brown, David I. Hulmes, James M. Long, Jean Marc Valk, Daniel M. Bayston, Andreas Goeke,
Jayne M. Muir, Nathaniel W. Alcock, Conformational Analysis of Phosphinamine Ligands
- Lisa D.Cother, Paul Lickiss, Andrew White, David J. Williams, Hydrogen Bonding to Silanols
As with ECTOC-1 and ECHET96, we hope to publish a CD-ROM of the conference proceedings,
comprising
those accepted articles and posters whose authors have agreed to their inclusion.
