'Open Access' is a buzz word in academics. Normally, It indicates free access to scientific article i.e. access without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself .[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-access_journal]  http://scholarlyoa.com/2012/11/30/criteria-for-determining-predatory-open-access-publishers-2nd-edition/ Directories/Tools: Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) Open Access Journals Search Engine (OAJSE) Open Access Directory e-Century Publishing Corporation Genamics JournalSeek   ABC-Chemistry: Directory of Free Journals in Chemistry http://oad.simmons.edu/oadwiki/Main_Page

  Organic Reactions A comprehensive resource which provides information about the most important and useful synthetic reactions, organized primarily by reaction type. It contains mechanism, scope, and limitations of reactions for each reaction type.  Based on this large work, there is freely accessible wiki which provides basic information about a reaction published in this collection. this can be accessed at http://organicreactions.org/index.php/Welcome_to_the_Organic_Reactions_Wiki_Home_Page

The ultimate goal of science is to understand the natural phenomenons and use them for mankind. There is no need to elaborate importance of chemical sciences in society. IYC 2011 gives an opportunity to remember contributions which ultimately changed the world. "Chemistry is often central, with principles and discoveries that enable work in other subjects," Marie Skłodowska–Curie Both women and men have made significant contributions to chemistry. Marie Curie is probably the best-known woman in science. She was the first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, first person to win Nobel Prizes in two different scientific disciplines (Nobel Laureate: 1903 in Physics and 1911  in Chemistry). And also, first famous woman scientist in the modern world.  "Mother of Modern Physics" -- pioneer in research about . She coined the word "radioactivity" . She was first woman awarded a Ph.D. in research science in Europe, first woman professor at the Sorbonne . She di...

Text Book on Environmental Studies This book is a part of initiative taken up by UGC and introduces formal study of  the environment  in our academic curriculum. Considering the deteriorating state of the environment, and as per direction of  the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India , the UGC introduced a basic course on Environmental Studies for undergraduate education . The Expert Committee appointed by the UGC looked into all the pertinent questions. This was followed by the framing of the Core Module Syllabus for Environmental Studies for undergraduate courses for all branches of Higher Education. This book is the result of this initiative. This book is freely available to download form UGC website   Cover Preliminary Page Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3   Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Textbook Of Environmental Studies For Ugc Book: Textbook Of Environmental Studies For Ugc Author: Erach Bharucha ISBN: 8173715408 ISBN-13: 978817371...

  IUPAC Atropisomers is defined as following A subclass of conformers which can be isolated as separate chemical species and which arise from restricted rotation about a single bond, e.g. ortho -substituted biphenyl, 1,1,2,2-tetra- tert -butylethane. The word atropisomer is derived from the Greek a , meaning not , and tropos , meaning turn . The name was coined by Kuhn in 1933, but atropisomerism was first detected in 6,6’-dinitro-2,2’-diphenic acid by Cristie in 1922.

Nomenclature of Inorganic Chemistry IUPAC Recommendations 2005 This new edition of the 'Red Book' clarifies and updates recommendations concerning the names and formulae of inorganic compounds and reflects major recent developments in inorganic chemistry. Moreover, it presents recommendations fully consistent with the principles of the nomenclature of organic chemistry. In order to choose the most appropriate of the various nomenclature systems described, a flowchart is provided to guide the reader to a section or chapter where rules can be found for a particular type of compound or species. Copious examples are supplemented by an extensive subject index. http://old.iupac.org/publications/books/rbook/Red_Book_2005.pdf Related Posts: Nomenclature    Get Green Book, 2nd Edition for free!!
