Dear Colleague:

The ICPC Organizing Committees and the Cincinnati Section of the ACS invite
you
to participate in the XIVth INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE on PHOSPHORUS CHEMISTRY
(ICPC) July 12-17, 1998 in Cincinnati, Ohio.

One of the special features of this meeting will be the breadth of NMR and
other spectroscopic topics. 31P NMR sessions include conventional NMR, solid
state, MRI, and biological applications. Three major sessions of note and
their chairs are as follows: "31P NMR Spectroscopy: Computational and
Interpretive Advances" (L. Quin); "Biological 31P NMR" (D. Gorenstein); and
"Spectroscopic and Microscopic Techniques for Bone and Calcium Phosphate
Minerals" (Y. Pan, B. Borah). Two poster sessions with numerous other
analytical related presentations will also be a major part of the meeting.

Most other major aspects of phosphorus chemistry will also be represented
including an emphasis on bio-medical and industrial applications. Traditional
strengths of the meeting, such as organic and inorganic chemistry will be
supplemented with sessions on stereo and coordination chemistry. Theoretical
aspects will also be presented. Biomedical related topics will also include
oligonucleotides, catalytic antibodies, bio-organic, bisphosphonates,
osteoporosis and dental applications, and radiopharmaceuticals. Further
industrial uses such as agricultural chemistry, flame retardant, and chelation
effects will be covered.
