Funded Activity Summary

Computational Quantum Chemistry Study of Molecular Structures, Stabilities and Reactions. Computational quantum chemistry is revolutionizing the study and practice of chemistry. We will use state-of-the-art computer calculations to investigate chemical structures, stabilities and reactions, particularly for free radicals. Radicals are of great importance in chemistry, biology and polymer science, but are difficult to study experimentally. We will use the computer calculations to determine how to make radicals more stable, how they react to produce polymers, how they cause damage to proteins, and how they are involved in helping vitamin B12 make reactions go faster. We will create new methodologies in order to reliably achieve these goals.
