SUMMARY:Conférence Novartis avec le Professeur Kendall Houk (UCLA)
DESCRIPTION:Titre : “Dynamics and Mechanisms of Cycloadditions and Sigmat
 ropic Shifts”Endroit : Pavillon Roger-Gaudry\, salle M-415 à 16 h.Hôt
 e : Professeur Shawn Collins\nCette conférence sera prononcée (en ang
 lais) par le Professeur Kendall Houk de l'Université de Californie\, 
 Los Angeles (UCLA).\nRésumé : The mechanisms and dynamics of bioorthogo
 nal and enzyme-catalyzed cycloadditions will be discussed. We have develop
 ed a Distortion/Interaction model of reactivity\, and we have performed mo
 lecular dynamics simulations of these and other organic reactions in the g
 as phase and in solution.  The factors controlling reactivities in cycloa
 dditions of use in probing biology will be discussed.  We also propose a 
 dynamical criterion to describe mechanisms of cycloadditions. Concerted (i
 n unison) or stepwise mechanisms are defined in terms of the timing of bon
 ding changes.  For reactions in which two new sigma bonds are formed\, a 
 dynamically concerted reaction is one in which the second bond forms withi
 n 60s fs of the formation of the first bond. A stepwise reaction is one in
  which the second bond begins to form more than 60fs after the first is fo
 rmed.  These criteria have been applied to a variety of bioothogonal cycl
 oadditions\, and mutually orthogonal cycloadditions have been predicted an
 d tested experimentally.  The dynamics of reactions as well as enzyme-cat
 alyzed cycloadditions will be reported.  The influence of solvent and enz
 yme on trajectories will be described.\nLeading References\n(1) D. H. Es
