Symposium of Metal-Carbene Consortium

Symposium of Metal-Carbene Consortium will feature invited lectures provided by leaders in carbene and nitrene chemistries and poster sessions for contributing presentations. Topical areas include catalytic reactions of metal carbenes and nitrenes and their applications, novel ways to generate carbenes and nitrenes, carbenes as catalysts, and theoretical implications for carbene and nitrene reactions. Applications in biology and medicine, materials development, mechanistic understanding, and late-stage functionalization will be featured. Past symposia demonstrated the unique advantages of these meetings in the building of connections and fostering national and international collaborations.
