Welcome to The 12th International Electronic Conference on Synthetic Organic Chemistry

Call for Papers

The research concerned with synthetic organic chemistry is progressing fast and simultaneously, activities within both industry and academy are becoming more globalized. Successful research requires interaction with several units around the world. We are facing an obvious need for new and fast types of communication within our scientific community. Sciforum.net electronic conferences provide a platform for fast exchange of the latest research findings, as well as a possibility for global meetings with no limitations related to traveling.

The 12th International Electronic Conference on Synthetic Organic Chemistry (ECSOC-12) will run from 1 - 30 November 2008. ECSOC-12 Proceedings will be published later online and as a CD-ROM edition. Posters presented at ECSOC-12 may be considered as preliminary communications of new research results or review papers and may be published in another form later in any standard journal. At the authors discretion, contributions will be removed from the web-site after the end of the conference and not included in the online and CD-ROM proceedings editions. Authors are invited to publish their papers subsequently in Molecules.

Sessions

A. General Organic Synthesis
B. Solid Phase Chemistry and Combinatorial Synthesis
C. Bioorganic, Medicinal and Natural Products Chemistry
D. Symposium on Selenium and Tellurium Chemistry
E. Symposium on Microwave Assisted Synthesis
F. Polymer and Supramolecular Chemistry
G. Computational Chemistry

Instructions for Authors

Procedure for Submission, Peer-Review, Revision and Acceptance of Conference Proceedings Papers

1. Scholars interested in participating with the conference can submit their abstract (about 200-300 words covering the areas of Communications for the proceedings issue) online on this website until 30 September 2008.

2. The conference committee will pre-evaluate, based on the submitted abstract, whether a contribution from the authors of the abstract will be welcome for this 12th edition of ECSOC. All authors will be notified by 10 October 2008 about the acceptance of their abstract.

3. If the abstract is accepted for this conference, the author is asked to submit his full communication paper, optionally along with a PowerPoint presentation of his/her paper, until the submission deadline of 20 October 2008.

4. The conference committee will then organize a round of peer-review of the submitted communication papers, and authors are eventually asked to revise their paper based on peer-reviewer's comments.

5. Finally, accepted communication papers will appear on the website immediately after their acceptance.

6. Presented communications papers can be discussed, commented and rated during the time of the conference, 1-30 November 2008.

Proceedings Paper

Communications for the proceedings issue must have the following organization:

Firstpage:

Title

Full author names

Affiliations and authors' e-mail addresses

Abstract

Keywords

Introduction

Methods / Experim

Results and Discussion

Conclusions

(Acknowledgements)

References

Communications should be prepared in MS Word or any other word processor and should be converted to the PDF format before submission. The publication format will be PDF. The Communication paper should count at least 3 pages (incl. figures, tables and references). There is no page limit on the length, although authors are asked to keep their papers as concise as possible.

Presentation Slides
Authors are encouraged to preare a couple of slides in PowerPoint or similar software, to be displayed online along with the Communication. Slides, if available, will be displayed directly in the website using Sciforum.net's proprietary slides viewer. Slides can be prepared in exactly the same way as for any traditional conference where research results can be presented. Slides should be converted to the PDF format before submission so that our process can easily and automatically convert them for online displaying.

Submission
Submissions should be done by the authors online by registering with www.sciforum.net, and using the "New Submission" function once logged into system.

Copyright
MDPI AG, the publisher of the Sciforum.net platform, is an open access publisher. We believe that authors should retain the copyright to their scholarly works. Hence, by submitting a Communication paper to this conference, you retain the copyright of your paper, but you grant MDPI AG the non-exclusive right to publish this paper online on the Sciforum.net platform. This means you can easily submit your paper to any scientific journal at a later stage and transfer the copyright to its publisher (if required by that publisher).

sciforum-000307	Solvent-mediated reactivity of b-aminoalcohols against dialkyloxalate: synthesis of tetrasubstituted oxalamide and/ or morpholin-2,3-dione derivatives. Maria Luisa Testa , Elena Zaballos-Garcia , Ramón Zaragozá Submitted: 31 Oct 2008 Abstract: Show Abstract	Maria Luisa Testa , Elena Zaballos-Garcia , Ramón Zaragozá	N/A	Show Abstract
The reactivity of various b-aminoalcohols with diethyloxalate, in several reaction conditions, has been investigated. Lineal or cyclic derivatives were obtained depending on the nature of the solvent used and the starting material.
sciforum-000308	Tetrachlorosilane-A Versatile Reagent in Organic Synthesis Tarek Salama , Saad Elmorsya , Mohamed Ismaila Submitted: 31 Oct 2008 Abstract: Show Abstract	Tarek Salama , Saad Elmorsya , Mohamed Ismaila	N/A	Show Abstract
A recent increased attention is witnessed to the use of tetrachlorosilane (TCS), a cheap industrial intermediate, as a versatile reagent in organic synthesis. For example, TCS was used as an effective dehydrating agent, trans-silylating reagent and as a starting substrate for in situ preparation of other useful stoichiometric reagents in synthetic organic chemistry. Of these reagents TCS-NaI (Iodotrichlorosilane, ITCS), TCS-NaN3 (azidochlorosilanes) and TCS in combination with ZnCl2, Zn, KCN, Na2S and others. Some selected synthetic applications of TCS as dehydrating agent as well as one of its based "in situ" reagents (TCS-NaN3) are briefly highlighted herein.
sciforum-000311	Synthesis of Enantiopure Methyl (1S,2S,3R,4S,5R)-2-Amino-3,4,5-trihydroxycyclopentanecarboxylate Ramón Estévez , Juan Estévez , Fernando Fernándeza Submitted: 31 Oct 2008 Abstract: Show Abstract	Ramón Estévez , Juan Estévez , Fernando Fernándeza	N/A	Show Abstract
The first total synthesis of enantiopure methyl (1S,2S,3R,4S,5R)-2-amino-3,4,5-trihydroxycyclopentanecarboxylate was carried out according to our recent novel strategy for the transformation of nitrohexofuranoses into cyclopentylamines, which is based on an intramolecular cyclization leading to 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives. Differences in reactivity for this key step were rationallized by using molecular mechanism based calculations.
sciforum-000312	Sonogashira versus Stephens-Castro Mediated Synthesis of o-Phenylethynylbenzoic Acids, Convenient Precursors of 3-Phenylisocoumarins Ramón Estévez , Juan Estévez , Francisco Reboredo Submitted: 31 Oct 2008 Abstract: Show Abstract	Ramón Estévez , Juan Estévez , Francisco Reboredo	N/A	Show Abstract
We describe herein two synthetic approaches to 3-phenyl-5-nitro-isocoumarines, both based on a nitro-facilitated cyclization of o-phenylethynylbenzoic acids obtained by Sonogashira or Stephens-Castro mediated coupling of o-yodobenzoic acids and phenylacetilenes
sciforum-000313	Synthesis of New 2-(3-Hydroxy-4-oxo-4Hnaphthalenylidene) acetonitriles in Aqueous Solvent Didier Villemina , Mohammed Benabdallah , Nadjib Rahmounb , Noureddine Choukchou-Braham , Bachir Mostefa-Karab Submitted: 31 Oct 2008 Abstract: Show Abstract	Didier Villemina , Mohammed Benabdallah , Nadjib Rahmounb , Noureddine Choukchou-Braham , Bachir Mostefa-Karab	N/A	Show Abstract
We have prepared a serie of new naphthoquinomethanes: [2-(3-hydroxy-4-oxo-4H-naphthalen-1-ylidene) acetonitriles] by the cascade Michael-elimination reaction of sodium 1, 2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonate with substituted acetonitriles in basic ethanol-water.
