Solid-Phase Organic Synthesis Edited by Kevin Burgess, Texas A & M University Efficient, high-throughput chemistry is now the focus of many research laboratories. Solid-phase organic syntheses are central to many of these combinatorial and parallel screening methodologies. Consequently, they have been a major scientific theme of the 1990s and promise to remain prominent for the first part of the new millennium. Indeed, a bewildering number of papers have entered the literature on this topic; some report minor modifications enabling transformation of solution-phase methods to a solid support, while others report major innovations. Solid-Phase Organic Synthesis collects, highlights, and critiques some of the key developments in the field. Leading practitioners explain different perspectives on diverse aspects of the area. Specific topics covered include: * Syntheses of guanidines * Palladium-catalyzed C-C bond forming reactions * S_nAr reactions for the formation of heterocycles * Sequence-specific arylalkyne oligomers * Resin-supported capture agents and other reagents * Synthesis on pins * Monitoring of supported reactions using IR * Solid-phase syntheses of natural product derivatives Of related interest .

The ICE Coasts, Maritime Structures and Breakwaters conference series, sponsored by the ICE for over thirty years, is the leading international forum for the presentation of the latest developments in coastal and maritime engineering. The eleventh conference, Realising the Potential, was held in Liverpool from 5th to 7th September 2017. Across the three days, it was attended by over 300 delegates and saw 90 papers presented. This book contains the full discussion notes from each session at the conference as well as 'innovation spotlights' detailing short presentations on new and developing practices and processes. The topics for 2017 focused on describing the design, construction, analysis and performance of a wide range of maritime structures. The contents contain the latest research and developments and up-to-date guidance and innovations as well as practical lessons learned from experience. The 90 papers presented here cover a diverse range of topics including construction in ports working in marine environments challenges at the coast coastal developments breakwater armour ecological aspects of design developments in overtopping waves on structures. With contributions from those in industry and academia and featuring a wide range of international case studies, these proceedings offer an essential reference for coastal engineers and professionals.

The ICE Coasts, Maritime Structures and Breakwaters conference series, sponsored by the ICE for over thirty years, is the leading forum for the presentation of the latest developments in coastal and maritime engineering. The tenth conference, From Sea to Shore – Meeting the Challenges of the Sea, was the largest in the history of the series attracting over 450 delegates and 130 papers across 3 plenary and 27 parallel sessions. In addition, these proceedings retain the tradition of including full discussions from each session. Whilst retaining the historical coverage on shoreline structures and coastal processes, the conference extended the marine energy theme with emphasis on the civil and coastal engineering interface such as fluid loadings, resource modelling and interactions with the environment. The papers, presented across two volumes, are divided into three streams: The first stream covers topics such as breakwater design, construction, armouring, overtopping and lessons from historical structures. The second stream tackles beaches, coastal structures, processes and erosion, coastal protection structures and environment schemes, shoreline management and flood forecasting. The third stream explores hydrodynamics, wave structure interactions, numerical and physical odelling, new test facilities and techniques, and renewable energy schemes. With contributions from industry and academia and a wide range of case studies including the UK, Italy, Pakistan and Hong Kong, From Sea to Shore – Meeting the Challenges of the Sea provides an invaluable reference for engineers and researchers in the field today and for many years to come.
