Dombay Organic Conference Cluster DOCC-2016
Dombay Organic Conference Cluster (DOCC-2016) was conducted from May 29 to June 3 2016 in Dombay and gathered leading organic chemists of this country and the globe – 270 participants from 27 countries.
The most pressing issues of organic chemistry from theory to applications were discussed during 6 days of the Cluster which was comprised of a few academic events: the International Conference Modern Trends in Organic Chemistry, 9th Eurasian school in Heterocyclic Chemistry and the Organic Chemistry Conference of Young Scientists. 7 plenary and 13 key lectures were delivered. Profs. A. Dilman and A. Terent’ev represented ZIOC RAS.
