Wanted: OA papers to test a chemical mark-up language

From Antony Williams:

...This is a request to the community to help provide access to "chemistry documents" in Microsoft Word format. We are looking specifically for Open Access Chemistry publications detailing syntheses, organic chemistry and analytical chemistry. When we receive these articles we will use our markup technology [ChemMantis] to markup the documents as examples. We will make them available via our website as examples of how document markup and connection to ChemSpider can open up a world of integration across other chemistry resources....
