Advances in Synthesis, Catalysis, and Molecular Design (Chemistry2027)
the chair
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of MDPI and the journal Chemistry, it is my great pleasure to invite you to participate in Chemistry 2027, which will take place in Belgrade, Serbia, from 30 September to 2 October 2027.
Chemistry continues to drive innovation across disciplines, providing fundamental insights and transformative solutions to some of the most pressing scientific and technological challenges of our time. From understanding the principles that govern chemical reactivity to designing advanced functional materials and developing sustainable synthetic methodologies, chemistry remains at the heart of scientific discovery and progress.
Chemistry 2027 will bring together researchers from academia, industry, and research institutions to discuss recent advances across a broad range of chemical sciences. The conference will provide an international platform for exchanging ideas, fostering collaborations, and exploring emerging directions in fields including organic and organometallic chemistry, main group chemistry, reaction mechanisms, radical transformations, stereoelectronic effects, photochemistry, carbon-rich materials, and related areas at the forefront of modern chemical research.
We warmly invite you to contribute to this dynamic scientific forum by submitting abstracts for oral and poster presentations. The conference will offer an engaging environment for presenting new discoveries, discussing challenges and opportunities, and building meaningful professional connections within the global chemistry community.
We look forward to welcoming you to Belgrade for three inspiring days of scientific exchange, collaboration, and innovation.
Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Igor Alabugin
Chemistry 2027 Chair
Meet Our Chair
Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Florida State University, Tallahassee, USA;Igor Alabugin is a Distinguished Research Professor whose work bridges synthetic and theoretical organic chemistry. His research group is known for integrating experimental and theoretical approaches to discover new reactions, reveal hidden stereoelectronic effects, and design unusual molecules with applications for molecular electronics. In 2023, Alabugin received the Southern Chemist Award from the American Chemical Society for his pioneering contributions to organic chemistry. His honors also include the 2022 George Gamow Award, the 2022 Florida State University Distinguished Research Professor Award, the 2017 Florida Award from the American Chemical Society (ACS), and the 2011 ACS Arthur C. Cope Scholar Award, among others, recognizing his sustained innovation in the field of chemical reactivity. In addition to his research accomplishments, Alabugin is a dedicated mentor and educator, having guided numerous undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral researchers. He also serves as Editor-in-Chief of Chemistry and a member of editorial boards for several leading journals in the chemical sciences.
