Topics to be covered include the safe and selective generation of reactive intermediates, and their applications in complex molecule synthesis and in useful functional group interconversions.
This meeting will be of interest to chemists from both the industrial and academic sectors, in particular those who might consider exploiting the chemistry of these reactive intermediates in their own work. Delegates will benefit from exposure to the latest results from leading research groups across the field of reactive intermediates at large, all brought together for the first time at a single one-day meeting. There will be ample time for delegates to ask questions of the speakers throughout the day and at the evening wine reception.

11.00 Asymmetric synthesis using chiral bases
Prof Nigel Simpkins, University of Birmingham
12.00 Surprises and discoveries in catalysis

13.00 Lunch and Exhibition
14.00 Time to add some blue to the palette: introducing basic nitrogen to singlet oxygen initiated cascades
