| Letter to Santa Claus |
|
Or to the Three Wise Men, depending on your preferences. Anyway, Christmas is coming, we have been good chemists this year and it is time to write our letter. Tradition says we should ask for new toys, but we are no longer kids (well, in most cases), so instead toys we will ask for new reactions to play with. This is our wish list for the next year.

| Review of the month : Pressure chemistry |
|
| The influence of pressure in the outcome of the chemical reactions is one of those factors that are mentioned in the organic chemistry courses, but it seems nobody take it seriously. Though probably most of our readers will not benefit directly from these background concepts, we think the review we have selected this month is anyway worthwile reading. "High pressure in organic chemistry on the way to miniaturization", by Verboom et al. (Tetrahedron 2008, 64, 10023), covers the role of pressure in several chemical reactions with special emphasis on miniaturized systems. |
