IUPAC Symposium on Natural Products, Karachi, Pakistan, January 16-20, 1994, Support of Participation by U.S. Scientists

项目说明：本项目支持一组美国科学家参加定于1994年1月16日至20日在巴基斯坦卡拉奇举行的第19届国际纯粹与应用化学联合会（IUPAC）天然产物化学研讨会。巴基斯坦的组织者是阿塔·乌尔·拉赫曼博士，他是卡拉奇大学H.E.J.化学研究所所长。研讨会和巴基斯坦-美国研讨会将讨论天然产物化学的前沿领域，包括立体选择合成、结构解析的现代光谱技术、生物活性天然产物和生物有机化学。该计划将包括全体讲座，分组讲座和海报展示。会议将分为四个平行会议，包括：天然产物的合成方法，生物活性天然产物，天然产物的结构研究和生物有机化学。范围：这是IUPAC首次在巴基斯坦举办的研讨会。H.E.J.化学研究所过去组织了几次关于天然产物化学的专题讨论会，来自世界各地的著名科学家参加了这些会议，并发表了高质量的出版物。该项目将有利于美国和巴基斯坦的科学家，也有利于来自南亚和中东国家的参与者，这些国家通常有代表参加。将在斯里兰卡科伦坡举行一次IUPAC前专题讨论会，在约旦安曼举行一次IUPAC后专题讨论会。该项目将帮助这些国家的许多科学家与来自美国的科学家建立联系，以促进未来的合作。＊＊＊

9314451 Le Quesne Description: This project supports the participation by a group of U.S. scientists in the 19th International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) Symposium on the Chemistry of Natural Products, scheduled to be held January 16 to 20, 1994 in Karachi, Pakistan. The Pakistani organizer is Dr. Atta ur Rahman, director of the H.E.J. Research Institute of Chemistry at the University of Karachi. The symposium and a Pakistan U.S. Workshop will deal with frontier areas of natural product chemistry including stereoselective synthesis, modern spectroscopic techniques for structure elucidation, bioactive natural products and bioorganic chemistry. The program will consist of plenary lectures, session lectures and poster presentations. The sessions will be divided into four parallel sessions covering: synthetic approaches to natural products, bioactive natural products, structural studies on natural products, and bioorganic chemistry. Scope: This is the first IUPAC organized symposium to be held in Pakistan. The H.E.J. Research Institute of Chemistry has organized several past symposia on natural product chemistry, with participation by eminent scientists from around the world, and with high quality publications resulting from these meetings. The project will be beneficial to U.S. and to Pakistan scientists but also to participants from countries in South Asia and the Middle East which are usually represented. A pre IUPAC symposium will be held in Colombo, Sri Lanka, and a post IUPAC will be held in Amman, Jordan. The project will help many of the scientists in these countries to establish contacts with scientists from the U.S. for fut ure collaboration. ***
