Computational studies on ring-opening and closure : origins of selectivity and catalysis

This thesis describes the application of computational chemistry to understand the origins of the regioselectivity and stereoselectivity in reactions involving the opening and formation of cyclic species. In particular, we have used transition state modeling to gain quantitative insight into an area...
