20th International Conference on Organic Synthesis

Organic Chemistry Frontiers is very pleased to sponsor the 20th International Conference on Organic Synthesis (ICOS-20) to be held from 29 June to 4 July 2014 at Eötvös Lóránd University in Hungary, Budapest.

The International Conferences on Organic Synthesis (ICOS) have been organised  around the world since 1976 under IUPAC sponsorship, which reflects the growth and development of organic synthesis in response to new research challenges. Each year IUPAC sponsors a large number of independently organised symposia that cover a wide range of specialised topics in chemistry. Sponsorship by IUPAC attests to the quality of the scientific program and indicates the host country’s assurance that scientists from all countries may participate.
ICOS-20 will create an aspiring forum where scientific and industrial contributions of organic synthesis will be presented. Following a great series of successful Conferences, we hope that our event will also continue the tradition, by collecting excellent scientists, organizing interesting scientific program with illustration of the most significant aspects and achievements of organic chemistry and, last but not least, offering attractive social programs to enjoy the hospitality and the beauties of our historic capital.

The topics of this conference are following:

1. New Reactions and New Reagents
2. Applications and New Trends in Bioorganic Chemistry
3. Natural Products Synthesis
4. Organic Synthesis in Materials Research
5. Organic Synthesis in Drug Discovery and Process Development
6. Catalysis in Organic Synthesis

Plenary lecturers:

Prof. Margaret Brimble (New Zealand)   Prof. Marco A. Ciufolini (Canada)
Prof. Minoru Isobe (Taiwan) Prof. Eusebio Juaristi (Mexico)
Prof. Max Malacria (France)  Prof. Johann Mulzer (Austria)
Prof. Jay Siegel (China) Prof. Lutz F. Tietze (Germany)
Prof. Mark A. Rizzacasa (Australia)

Invited lecturers:

Prof. Kevin Booker-Milburn (UK) Prof. Christina L. L. Chai (Singapore)
Prof. Girolamo Cirrincione (Italy) Prof. Saverio Florio (Italy)
Prof. Tohru Fukuyama (Japan)  Prof. Tamás Kálai (Hungary)
