Bilateral NSF/SERC Workshop on Organometallics in Organic Synthesis, August 2-7, 1992, Loch Lomond, Scotland

该奖项由化学学部特别项目办公室颁发，将使12名年轻的美国化学家能够参加1992年8月2日至7日在苏格兰洛蒙德湖举行的nsf -科学与工程研究委员会（SERC）关于有机合成中的有机金属的双边研讨会。这个研讨会是在美国国家科学基金会化学咨询委员会的建议下召开的，聚集了大约25位有可能成为该领域领导者的年轻的美国和英国科学家。以可预测的方式形成碳-碳键对有机合成至关重要。在这种情况下，通过有机金属配合物的中间体进行的反应变得越来越重要。有机金属化学通过允许金属作为有机反应的模板，架起了有机和无机化学传统学科的桥梁。NSF-SERC有机合成中的有机金属学双边研讨会的主要目的是让年轻科学家接触到更广泛的国际学术社区，并为长期的国际合作奠定基础。

This award from the Office of Special Projects of the Division of Chemistry will enable the participation of twelve young U.S. chemists in the Bilateral NSF-Science and Engineering Research Council (SERC) Workshop on Organometallics in Organic Synthesis being held at Loch Lomond, Scotland, on August 2-7, 1992. This workshop, convened at recommendation of the NSF Chemistry Advisory Committee, brings together some twenty-five young American and British scientists who are likely to become leaders in the field. %%% The formation of carbon-carbon bonds in a predictable manner is of utmost importance to organic synthesis. In this context, reactions which proceed through the intermediacy of organometallic complexes have become increasingly important. Organometallic chemistry bridges the traditional disciplines of organic and inorganic chemistry by allowing metals to act as templates for organic reactions. The primary aim of this Bilateral NSF-SERC Workshop on Organometallics in Organic Synthesis is to expose young scientists to the wider community of international scholarship and to build the foundation for long term international collaborations.
