Success of the Second Meeting of Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry in Tarragona

From 5 to 7 February 2025, the Second Meeting of Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry of the SCQ, RQIO 2025, was held in Tarragona, an event that brought together researchers and experts in the area with the aim of sharing advances and promoting scientific collaboration. The meeting had a wide participation of specialists from various institutions, including several members of our Inorganic Chemistry Section of the University of Barcelona (UB).

During the event, 5 plenary conferences, 28 oral communications, 27 flash presentations and 20 communications in poster format were presented, giving prominence to doctoral students and new researchers. Among the participants from the UB, presentations on new materials, the design of metal complexes with potential in sustainable chemistry stood out.

In addition to the scientific activities, the meeting offered spaces for the exchange of ideas and the generation of future collaborations between research groups.

In the attached photo, most of the meeting attendees and the event organizers, including the members of our Section who have been part of the organization of the event, Dr. Guillem Aromí and Leoní A. Barrios (LabMolDesign), as well as members of the research groups CATHOM, CIC, EE, MATCAT, LabMolDesign, LM2N, MagMol, Matheu Lab, MEC and SuNS.

We thank the organizers Montse Dieguez, María Biosca, Elisenda Mas (Universitat Rovira i Virgili), Mónica H. Pérez-Temprano, Arjan W. Kleij (ICIQ), the Scientific Committee and the Catalan Society of Chemistry (SCQ) and all the participants for the excellent welcome and we hope to continue actively participating in future editions of this key event for the chemical community.
