DESCRIPTION:Computational chemistry is a branch of chemistry that uses com
 puter simulation to solve chemical problems. In my talk I will present thr
 ee projects where quantum chemistry calculations were employed to rational
 ise and improve synthetic organic chemistry results.\n1) Mechanistic studi
 es of the primary amine catalysed aldol reaction between activated ketones
  and acetone\n2) Cross-acyloin condensation of O-tethered diesters\n3) Man
 ganese dioxide catalysed hydrolysis of nitriles
