The 5th International Conference on Excited State Aromaticity and Antiaromaticity (ICESAA-5)
Welcome
The concept of excited-state aromaticity and antiaromaticity (ESA & ESAA) was proposed by Colin Baird in 1972, and now the significant role of ESA & ESAA in various molecular systems has gained wide acceptance. This conference covers a broad range of molecular sciences relating to aromatic and antiaromatic molecules in excited states, including photochemistry, physical organic chemistry, theoretical calculations, ultrafast dynamics, supramolecular chemistry, chemical informatics, functional materials, etc. We look forward to meeting you in Osaka!
