Abstract:
In their editorial, Reuben Jih-Ru Hwu and Theresa Kueckmann reflect on the objective of the 18th Asian Chemical Congress (ACC). The ACC is a biennial event organized by members of the Federation of Asian Chemical Societies (FACS), an official supporting organization for the publication of the three ACES journals Chemistry-An Asian Journal, Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry, and ChemNanoMat. This special issue showcases the high quality of the 2019 ACC, featuring contributions by Keynote and Invited Speakers.

Toxic Reactions: Overview
Toxicity falls into two primary categories: local and systemic.
Local toxicity appears at the exposure site, such as protein denaturation caused by caustic substances.
In contrast, systemic toxicity requires the toxic agent's absorption and distribution,...
Chemical Shift: Internal References and Solvent Effects
The internal reference compound generally used in NMR spectroscopy is tetramethylsilane (TMS). TMS is preferred because it is chemically inert, soluble in NMR solvents, and easily removable. Also, the highly shielded methyl protons in TMS yield an intense...
