Location

VVF Canterelle d’Obernai Les Géraniums, Obernai, France

Final Programme & List of Accepted Participants

Supramolecular Chemistry started with the generation of complexes through the association of host and guest molecules. The fabulous expansion of this area permits us now to associate, by supramolecular synthesis, molecular complexes into architectures and systems. Supramolecular synthesis combined with self-assembly processes is a powerful method for the generation of complexity. The latter may be expressed at the structural level through the generation of complex architectures and/or at the functional level through the formation of complex systems performing specific functions. This conference will cover both aspects through lectures given by the most eminent actors in the area. The scope of the conference is diverse and open. Different aspects of organic, inorganic and biological supramolecular assemblies will be presented. In particular, the following topics will be presented: dynamic selection, organisation in space, molecular machines, giant architectures, catalysis in confined space, surface templated organisation, supramolecular events in ionic liquids, gels and crystals as supramolecular objects and molecular tectonics.
