Symposium on Microwave Accelerated Synthesis - M.A.S.-05

About the Conference - Aim & Scope

This symposium will be the first one with this theme organised in Germany, aimed at bringing together scientists, technologists engineers and experts from academic, governmental and industrial institutions to promote and disseminate this recent technology of microwaves irradiation in chemical synthesis. The symposium will offer enormous opportunities to exchange ideas and experience about synthetic aspects, mechanisms and kinetics, particularly emphasising on the potential applications of microwave chemistry.

About the Conference - Aim & Scope

Microwave accelerated synthesis is a rapidly expanding field whose time has come since new devices have been developed: a fascinating method that will have a strong impact on synthetic chemistry over the next years.

Although there have been major advancements over the last decades in the methodology of synthetic chemistry, one element of these processes has not changed since its conception - the use of conductive heating to perform chemical reactions. However, with the advent of microwave accelerated synthesis, one of the important dimensions to modern chemistry opens up which could significantly change the way of chemical synthesis by offering a new energy source. Instead of spending hours or days synthesizing a compound, chemists could now perform the same reaction in a few minutes time. This method will eventually replace many hot plates and block heaters, allowing chemists to begin using microwave energy on a broad scale.

Location

The conference will take place in the Chemical Institutes at the Heinrich Heine University Duesseldorf.

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
