چکیده

Advances in theory and processing power have established computation as a valuable interpretative and predictive tool in the discovery of new asymmetric catalysts. This tutorial review outlines the theory and practice of modeling stereoselective reactions. Recent examples illustrate how an understanding of the fundamental principles and the application of state-of-the-art computational methods may be used to gain mechanistic insight into organic and organometallic reactions. We highlight the emerging potential of this computational tool-box in providing meaningful predictions for the rational design of asymmetric catalysts. We present an accessible account of the field to encourage future synergy between computation and experiment.

Prediction of the pharmaceutical solubility in water and organic solvents via different soft computing models

Solubility data of solid in aqueous and different organic solvents are very important physicochemical properties considered in the design of the industrial processes and the theoretical studies. In this study, experimental solubility data of 666 pharmaceutical compounds in water and 712 pharmaceutical compounds in organic solvents were collected from different sources. Three different artificia...

Origins of stereoselectivity in the α-alkylation of chiral hydrazones.

Density functional theory calculations and experiment reveal the origin of stereoselectivity in the deprotonation-alkylation of chiral N-amino cyclic carbamate (ACC) hydrazones. When the ACC is a rigid, camphor-derived carbamate, the two conformations of the azaenolate intermediate differ in energy due to conformational effects within the oxazolidinone ring and steric interactions between the A...

Addition of lithiated 5-hydroxymethyl-1,3-dithiane to benzaldehyde: HMPA-controlled trans stereoselectivity.

Addition of 5-substituted dithianyl anions to carbonyl compounds normally produces trans adducts. The presence of a nucleophilic hydroxymethyl group in position 5 dramatically decreases the trans stereoselectivity of the reaction in THF. The trans/cis ratio shows a bell curve dependence on HMPA, fitted to a quantitative model involving a series of equilibrated ion pairs, of which an intermediat...

pKa predictions of some aniline derivatives by ab initio calculations

: In this work, different levels of theory containing HF, B3LYP, and MP2 with different basis sets such as 6-31G, 6-31G*, 6-311G, 6-311+G, 6-31+G*, 6-31+G are used to predict relative acidity constants of some aniline derivatives. Three different kinds of radii containing UAHF, Bondi, and Pauling are used to study how cavity forms change acidity constants. In all cases, DPCM model is used to si...
