We thank Antonio Femandez-Ramos for critically reading the manuscript. Part of this paper was written while PI worked as a guest at the Steacie Institute for Molecular Sciences. 

The ability to make optical measurements on individual molecules and submicroscopic aggregates, one at a time, is a valuable new tool in several areas of molecular science. By eliminating inlromogeneous broadening it allows pure spectroscopy to be perfonned witli unprecedented precision in certain condensed phase systems. As an analytical method it pennits tire rapid detection of certain analytes witli unmatched sensitivity. Finally, it is revolutionizing our...

The organizing committee extends a cordial invitation to participate in International conference on Analytical Chemistry and Chemical Analysis (AC CA-05) which is hold in scenic city of Kyiv, Ukraine, from. Septemher 12 to 18,2005. Tills conference belongs to die series of Ukrainian conferences in analytical chemistry established in 1970 by Ukrainian chemical society and chemical division of Ukrainian Academy of. Sciences. AC CA-05 is a 7 conference in analytical chemistry in Ukraine and it is dedicated to the centenary of the birth of the outstanding Ukrainian scientist, Anatoly K. Babko for his expertise in analytical chemistry and in the chemistry of complex compounds. Tlie current conference is organised by Analytical Scientific Council at Academy of Sciences of Ukraine under collaboration with European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences (EuClicMS) and sponsored by Intemational Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (lUPAC) and by the Intemational Association for the Promotion of Co-operation with Scientists from the New Independent States of the Eormer Soviet Union (INTAS). 

It is great that AC CA-05 took place in 2005. This year Ukraine demonstrates Eurointegration policy and we are in the vanguard of this process. In 2004 Analytical Chemistry Council NAS of Ukraine becomes a member of European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences. AC CA-05 is the next step towards Eurointegration of Ukrainian analytical science. The first steps are always hard to make. We tried to do our best... Thanks all participants for coming to AC CA-05.

The molecular and liquid properties of water have been subjects of intensive research in the field of molecular science. Most theoretical approaches, including molecular simulation and integral equation methods, have relied on the effective potential, which was determined empirically or semiempirically with the aid of ab initio MO calculations for isolated molecules. The potential parameters so determined from the ab initio MO in vacuum should have been readjusted so as to reproduce experimental observables in solutions. An obvious problem in such a way of determining molecular parameters is that it requires the reevaluation of the parameters whenever the thermodynamic conditions such as temperature and pressure are changed, because the effective potentials are state properties.

The disclosure, in 1982, that cationic, enantiopure BINAP-Rh(i) complexes can induce highly enantioselective isomerizations of allylic amines in THF or acetone, at or below room temperature, to afford optically active enamines in >95 % yield and >95 % ee, thus constituted a major breakthrough.67-68 This important discovery emerged from an impressive collaborative effort between chemists representing Osaka University, the Takasago Corporation, the Institute for Molecular Science at Okazaki, Japan, and Nagoya University. BINAP, 2,2 -bis(diphenylphosphino)-l,l -binaphthyl (Scheme 7), is a fully arylated, chiral diphosphine which was introduced in... 

Combinatorial chemistry constitutes a branch of the molecular sciences, providing an array of concepts and methods to solve molecular optimization problems (in drug research and beyond) more rapidly and efficiently than classical synthetic approaches.

In the recent decades, an enzyme-catalyzed polymerization ( enzymatic polymerization ) has been of increasing importance as a new trend in macro-molecular science. Enzyme catalysis has provided new synthetic strategy for useful polymers, most of which are difficult to produce by conventional chemical...
