JBCS

The importance of the Journals published by the Brazilian Chemical Society (SBQ) for the development of the Graduate Programs in Chemistry in Brazil is highlighted in this manuscript.

Chemistry Graduate Programs in Brazil (2016) & Ms and PhD students/ degrees (1998-2015).

The history of the Boletim of Brazilian Chemical Society and its different presentation formats: from paper to electronic media.

The Brazilian chemical sector presents today desirable features of interaction between Academia and Industry that are not matched within this country, except in the agriculture and husbandry areas. This desirable situation was built during the past 40 years.

Environmental chemistry studies the chemical and biochemical processes that take place in the atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere, as well as at the interfaces among them.

Brazilian Analytical Chemistry has advanced a lot in the last 40 years, occupying a prominent position in the international scenario. This growth is mainly due to the formation of human resources, the organization of scientific societies and the public investment

Catalysis is a field of utmost importance for the chemical industry: over 80% of the chemicals produced worldwide go through at least one catalytic step. Herein, a critical overview of this area in Brazil for the last 40 years is presented.

We have analyzed the growth of the Chemical Education Division (DED) mainly in the last 15 years and its presence during the 40 years of the SBQ, from the national and regional meetings in chemistry teaching, increase in the number of journals and researchers.

This work presents an overview of the relevance of Electrochemistry and Electroanalytical chemistry in Brazil that has contributed to the enhance of good quality human resources and high relevant production of technical and scientific papers.

This manuscript is to celebrate the forty years of the Sociedade Brasileira de Química - SBQ. Through a historical approach was presented several topics covered by The Division of Physical Chemistry of SBQ, as well as researchers have been invited to look to the future and overcome the next scientific challenges.

Growth of Photochemistry in Brazil during the Last 40 Years.

The development of the Inorganic Chemistry in Brazil in the last 15 years based on the scientific contributions of the members of the Inorganic Chemistry Division of the Brazilian Chemical Society (SBQ), and Brazilian Meetings on Inorganic Chemistry (BMIC).

The trajectory as well as the main challenges of the Division of Materials Chemistry of The Brazilian Chemical Society is reported in this paper.

Medicinal Chemistry relies on the integration of several disciplines to design and discover new drugs as well as to identify and understand the molecular mechanism of action of biologically active compounds.

This article describes the contribution of Organic Chemistry to the total synthesis of natural products in Brazil in the last 40 years.

The chemistry of natural products has a long tradition in Brazilian science. Contemporary challenges and perspectives for the science of natural products in Brazil are of seminal importance for the future generations of natural product chemists.
