St. Moritz-Bad, Switzerland

September 5 to September 9, 2000 Place

The Conference will be at St. Moritz-Bad, Switzerland, where the headquarters will be installed and all scientific sessions will be held. St Moritz is beautifully situated at an altitude of 1800 от above the sea-level and offers sufficient accommodations in early September. Temperatures in September are normally between 10 and 20 °С but may drop occasionally to the freezing point. Visitors are recommended to have appropriate clothing.

Scope and session

All contributions dealing with the coordination chemistry of metals will be

within the scope of the Conference. Since it is anticipated that the number of offered papers may far exceed the number that can conveniently be presented, a selection of offered papers may be necessary. This selection of about 150 papers will be made by the Executive Committee and the selected papers will be grouped according to their contents into 3 or 4 sections. For each paper 25 minutes will be available, including time for discussion.

Five or six plenary lectures will be held.

Scientific contributions

Those who wish to present a paper should give particulars (title, problem, method, results, etc.) on the enclosed form В and return it to the Secretary of IX I.C.C.C. before December 1, 1999. The selection of papers (see above) will be based on the information obtained.

Publications

Abstracts of the scientific contributions will be printed and the resulting

"Proceedings of IX I.C.C.C." mailed to the attendees of the Conference at least 2 weeks in advance free of charge. All participants will be asked to state to which address the Proceedings should be mailed. Plenary lectures will be published in the IUPAC Journal "Pure and Applied Chemistry".
