The
original research meeting of this society (JSCC), that is, the first
symposium associated with coordination compounds in Japan, was held
in 1942. However, it took 10 years until the second meeting was held
after World War II. Since 1952, the annual symposium has been
organized by JSCC every year. Until the 38th symposium held in 1988,
each symposium had been titled as a 'Japan Symposium on the
Chemistry of Complex Salts '. Since the 39th symposium in 1989, the
title has been changed into a 'Symposium on Coordination Chemistry
of Japan'. In 2002, the 'Japan Study Club on Coordination
Chemistry', corresponding to the old organization of this society,
was reorganized into the present form of the society, 'Japan Society
of Coordination Chemistry (JSCC). Moreover, Japan Society of
Coordination Chemistry became an organization founded on the basis
of Section 30 (1) of the Patent Law of Japan since July 2003. Since
September 2005, JSCC and 'Young Coordination Chemists' Association
of Japan (YCCAJ)' have been united into the same society under the
name of JSCC. JSCC operates with the aim of providing the
oppotunities for information exchange between the members, and
contributes to the advances in the field of coordination chemistry
in Japan. At the moment, the society is composed of 615 ordinary
members, 19 Emeritus members, 258 student members, and 8 companies
from legal entities. Thus the JSCC has now grown up into a large
group with the total number of members being 959, including the
number of the legal entities. |
