Catalysis, Methods and Strategies Empowering Organic Synthesis

The 2023 Gordon Research Conference on Organic Reactions and Processes will gather experts in organic chemistry at Bryant University in Smithfield, RI on July 16 - 21, 2023. This 68th meeting occurrence will present cutting edge research directed towards the synthesis of complex organic molecules and will attract a diverse group of leading industrial and academic scientists interested in the latest innovations in synthetic organic chemistry applied on scales from milligrams to kilograms.

The 2023 meeting features invited lectures on fundamental and targeted research enabling access to elaborate molecular scaffolds with exquisite control. The program includes both established and emerging scientists from the Americas, Asia, and Europe. Topics include total syntheses of natural products, pharmaceutical process chemistry, novel organic methods, biocatalysis, organometallic catalysis, and mechanistic investigations. Presentations will emphasize unpublished work and include open discussion to facilitate deeper understanding and generation of new ideas.

The conference also features lively and interactive poster sessions, showcasing work by young and established scientists from industry and academia. All attendees are invited to present their own research and discuss recent progress with other experts, so are strongly encouraged to submit a poster abstract. A few poster presenters will be selected to give oral short talks on the final day. The deadline for poster abstract submission is four weeks before the conference begins. This conference is annually oversubscribed, so early application is encouraged.
