INVITATION
TO HALCHEM IX
Dear Colleagues
We take great pleasure in inviting you to
participate in the 9th International Meeting on
Halogen Chemistry (HALCHEM IX), which will be
held at UNIVERSITY of PERUGIA, Italy from 23th
to 26th September, 2019. HALCHEM IX
follows the old tradition of the symposia
that involved and connected experts in halogen
chemistry since 2002 when the first edition was
organized in Sardinia by Professor Francesco
Devillanova. The first four meetings have
been organized in the south of Europe [in 2004
(HALCHEM II, Sardinia, Italy), 2006 (HALCHEM
III, Ioannina, Greece), 2008 (HALCHEM IV,
Barcelona, Spain), 2010 (HALCHEM V, Cagliari,
Italy). The HALCHEM VI moved to India and
was held in Bangalore in 2012. Then the
HALCHEM VII returned to Europe (Czestochowa,
Poland in 2015) to move again in Asia with
HALCHEM VIII that was held at Inuyama, Japan in
2017. Even if in the first editions,
HALCHEM meetings have been organized for a
smaller circle of participants (~30-40
researchers coming from several countries), the
last meetings in India and Japan attracted the
participation of more than 150 scientists
covering a different areas of interests
connected with halogen chemistry. A unique
friendly atmosphere that characterized all the
previous editions facilitated interactions
between the participants creating the bases for
several collaborations.
HALCHEM IX aim to follow the
traditions giving to all the participants
an adequate time for the presentation (invited
lecture (30 min), designated lecture (20 min),
and poster presentations. Contributions from
scientific
community working in
any areas of halogen chemistry and biology (such
as synthetic biological
and theoretical aspects,
spectroscopy, supramolecular chemistry,
halogen bonding, hypervalent halogen
compounds, medicinal chemistry, atmospheric
chemistry, etc.) are welcome.
