Description: 
In 1957, when the Department of Inorganic Chemistry was separated 
from the Chemical Institute of the Armenian Academy of Sciences, the Organic 
Section and its staff formed the basis of the Institute of Organic Chemistry. 
This institute engages in some physical-organic chemistry, but a greater 
effort appears to be devoted to organic synthesis, the halogenation of 
polymers, and the chemistry and compounds of vinylacetylene.

Description: 
This institute has developed methods for synthesizing unsaturated 
alcohols, cyanine and other dye materials, vitamins, and antibiotics. The 
antibiotic "Sanazin", which is used in the cure of tuberculosis of the bones, 
eyes, etc., seems to be subject ot special interest, as are high polymers. 
Recently, investigations concerning gallic acid and some of its derivatives 
as inhibitors for acute radiation sickness have been published. 
Advanced study is offered in organic synthesis, mechanisms of 
organic reactions, chemistry of phosphoro-organic compounds, chemistry of 
carbohydrates, and the chemistry of physiologically-active substances.
