Korrelierte Methoden basierend auf ersten Prinzipien zur Anwendung in der explorationsgestützten Syntheseplanung
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
Chemical reaction networks are at the core of how we model our understanding of chemistry. Every chemical process can be broken down into a set of reactions that form a reaction network. Hence, the automated, computer based simulation and exploration of these reaction networks is a great technology to drive the development and discovery of new chemical processes and materials. In order to derive meaningful results from these explorations, the data generated needs to be calculated with, or referenced against highly accurate quantum chemical methods. During the funding period of this project we developed a free, open-source software framework, that allows for the automated exploration of these networks. Additionally, we implemented a new quantum chemical method that combines two already existing methods, capturing the benefits of both. This implementation is currently undergoing rigorous testing. It will then serve as the aforementioned reference method for the automated explorations of chemical reaction networks. The final version of this highly accurate method will also be made available free and open-source.
