The conference is ideal for newly qualified discovery chemists and academics looking to gain the latest practical approaches for rapid production of novel compounds.

Topics include:

• Solid-bound reagents and scavengers
  in microwave assisted
  organic synthesis  
• Microwave-accelerated metal-catalyzed transformations
• Improved efficiency integrating synthesis
  and purification
• Solutions for reaction work-up
• Flow synthesis
  

Speakers:

• Dr Doris Dallinger, University Graz, Austria.
  Microwaves for the Synthesis of Heterocycles
• Dr Mark C Bagley, Cardiff University, UK.
  Microwaves and Heterocycles: New Methodology and Chemotherapeutic Opportunities
• Prof. Mark Bradley, Edinburgh University, UK.
  Solid phase microwave assisted synthesis
• Prof. Valery Fokin, The Scripps Research Institute, USA. Catalytic Dipolar Cycloadditions: Adventures with Copper, Ruthenium, and Rhodium.
• Dr Paul Watts, University of Hull, UK.
  Enhanced chemical synthesis using flow reactors
• Prof. Giancarlo Cravotto, University of Turin, Italy.
  Synthetic Procedures under non-conventional conditions: i.e. Organic reactions promoted by pwer ultrasound and microwaves alone or combined
• Mr Richard Jones, Thalesnano, Hungary. The advantages of applying flow synthesis towards hydrogenation from laboratory to process scale
• Dr Sunil Rana, Biotage, UK. The use and application of solid supported reagents in organic, medicinal and scale up chemistries - leaping hurdles

There is also an opportunity available to display a poster, if you wish to do so.  Posters will be on display during the breaks and will provide a good chance to share information with your peers.
