© Nicolas Brodu. 2003 The astrolabe is an ancient astronomical computer for solving problemsrelating to time and the position of the sun and stars in the sky.Historians credit the invention of the astrolabe to classical Greece.Brass astrolabes were highly developed in the Islamic world of the 8thcentury and later. chiefly as an aid to navigation and as a way offinding the direction of Mecca. In the Middle Ages it found its wayback to Europe and became the chief navigational instrument until theinvention of the sextant in the 18th century.

Aims and Scope Download Flyer Advanced Synthesis and Catalysis(ASC) is the leading primary journal in organic. organometallic. and applied chemistry. The high impact of ASC can be attributed to the unique focus of the journal. which publishes exciting new results from academic and industrial labs on efficient. practical. and environmentally friendly organic synthesis. While homogeneous. heterogeneous. organic. and enzyme catalysis are key technologies to achieve green synthesis. significant contributions to the same goal by synthesis design. reaction techniques. flow chemistry. and continuous processing. multiphase catalysis. green solvents. catalyst immobilization. and recycling. separation science. and process development are also featured in ASC. The Aims and Scope can be found in theNotice to Authorsor on the first page of the table of contents in every issue. ISSN: 1615-4150 (print). 1615-4169 (online). CODEN: ASCAF7.
