Research

I work in the area of theoretical chemistry, which can be defined, as the application of quantum and classical theories to the description of chemistry. The increase in the performance of computers has lead to an accurate modelization of various chemical phenomena.  For instance, the energetic requirements for a given reaction can be calculated with reasonable degree of accuracy, or the stability of computer-designed molecules can be predicted, even before they are actually synthetized. Due to this tremedeous potential, computational/theoretical chemistry has given rise to a new branch inside chemistry studies with increasing impact in our way of doing science. Below is a list of various projects I am taking part:


1. Hydrolysis of Phosphodiesters

2. Activated Amides for Hydrolysis



3. Protein-Ligand Recognition




4. BioPhotoreceptors




5. Dendrimers

6. Yukawa






Past Projects (During PhD)

1. Interstellar (Gas-Phase) Chemistry of P+

2. Mechanistic Studies of Organic Reactions
