SUMMARY:Synthesis planning\, mechanistic analysis and discovery of new rea
 ction classes in the age of computers - Prof. Bartosz Grzybowski\, UNIST\,
  Republic of Korea

CONTACT:Sharon Connor
DESCRIPTION:After decades of rather unsuccessful attempts\, computers are 
 finally making impact on the practice of synthetic chemistry. This change 
 is made possible by the combination of increased computing power and\, abo
 ve all\, new algorithms to encode and manipulate synthetic knowledge at va
 rious levels\, from sequences of full reactions to sequences of mechanisti
 c steps. In my talk\, I will illustrate how these advances have enabled co
 mpletely autonomous planning of multistep syntheses of complex (natural pr
 oduct) targets\, how they allow us to elucidate complex reaction mechanism
 s and\, above all\, discover new classes of reactions.\n
