This is a hands-on guide for the growing number of researchers in organic chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular biology who would like to augment their experiments with theoretical calculations. Given the current availability of sophisticated software, non-quantum chemistry practitioners can obtain accurate computational results and save significant amounts of laboratory time. This book teaches the use of quantum chemical computer programs while side-stepping the complex mathematical details. The book focuses on what kinds of biological problems can be solved by quantum mechanical calculations and how to select the appropriate methods.

An up-to-date, comprehensive guide to LITHIUM CHEMISTRY Although lithium has been the subject of numerous individualstudies, this intriguing element has rarely been examined from thebroad perspective many researchers require. Lithium Chemistry: ATheoretical and Experimental Overview fills this void by providingthe most thorough and up-to-date overview available of currenttheories and experimental data. Supported by nearly two hundred illustrations, this book draws uponthe expertise of prominent researchers in the field, and treats thefull range of modern applications and techniques. The result is aunique and invaluable guide to lithium studies for researchers andgraduate students working in the fields of organic, inorganic, andorgano-metallic chemistry. Lithium Chemistry: A Theoretical and Experimental Overview assumesa background in quantum chemistry and experimental physicalchemistry at the graduate level and includes coverage of thesemajor topics:* Bonding, structures, and energies in organolithium compounds* Theoretical studies of aggregates of lithium compounds* Comparison of lithium and hydrogen bonds* Lithium atom matrix reactions with small molecules* NMR of organolithium compounds* Aspects of the thermochemistry of lithium compounds* The structure of lithiated amines and lithiated ethers--fromcarbanions to carbenoids* Complexes of inorganic lithium salts* Structures of lithium salts of heteroatom compounds* Synthetic ionophores for lithium ions
