Symposium on Non-Oxidic Solids to be held in Chicago, IL, August 20-24, 1995

小行星9509249 拟议的专题讨论会的题目是“非氧化性固体的合成反应性和性质”。 我们选择这个主题是为了突出这些材料对基础化学的重要性 和技术。 虽然化学 氧化物的重要性是化学界所熟知的，并且在ACS和其他研讨会上得到了充分的体现，但一般来说，诸如硫属化物、卤化物、磷属化物、硼化物、碳化物和金属间化合物的非氧化物很少受到关注，尤其是在ACS研讨会上。 这些材料影响了我们对基础化学科学的理解和我们的技术进步。 对这些材料知之甚少，ACS研讨会将有助于将这一领域的重要问题和问题投射给广大的化学受众，特别是学生和年轻的研究人员。 鉴于对这些化合物的性质（包括非线性）的持续浓厚兴趣， 光学器件 （硫属化物， 磷族化合物， 超导性（硼化物）、可充电电池（锂离子电池）、氧储存和运输（氰化物）等。 重点将给予新的合成 技术、测量和表征 和非氧化性固体的处理。 %据我们所知，这是第一次专门讨论非氧化物固态材料的研讨会。 ***

9509249 Kanatzidis The proposed symposium is titled "Synthesis Reactivity and Properties of Non-Oxidic Solids". We chose this topic to highlight the significance of these materials to fundamental chemistry and to technology. Although the chemistry and significance of oxides is well known to the chemical community and well represented by a plethora of ACS and other symposia, in general non-oxides such as chalcogenides, halides, pnictides, borides, carbides and intermetallics have received very little attention, especially in ACS symposia. These materials impact both our understanding of fundamental chemical science and our technological progress in a major way. Little is known about these materials, and an ACS symposium will help in projecting the important issues and problems in this area to a broad chemistry audience and particularly to students and young researchers. The proposed symposium is very timely given the continuing strong interest in the properties of these compounds which include non- linear optics (chalcogenide, pnictides, superconductivity (borides), rechargeable batteries (hydrides), oxygen storage and transport (cyanides) and others. Emphasis will be given to new synthetic techniques, measurement and characterization and processing of non-oxidic solids. %%% To the best of our knowledge, this is the first symposium that focuses specifically on non-oxide solid state materials. ***
