The tournament is primarily intended for pre-intermediate to competitive players. There is an option of playing mixed single and/or mixed double. The entry is free of charge and in September there will be a form available for you to register.

Molecular self assembly based on coordination chemistry has made an explosive development in recent years Over the last 30 years, we have been
showing that the simple combination of transition metal’s square planer geometry (a 90 degree coordination angle) with pyridine based bridging ligands gives rise to the quantitative self assembly of nano sized, discrete organic frameworks The current interests in our group focus on i molecular confinement effects in coordination cages, ii) solution chemistry in crystalline porous complexes (as applied to “crystalline sponge method”), and iii) and giant self assemblies, as disclosed in this lecture.
