Abstract

Recent development in the use of high-precision quantum chemical calculations for the investigation of the mechanisms of synthetically important organometallic reaction is reviewed. The review is focused on the following issues that have be the subject of much discussion in the society of synthetic organic chemists for many years : (1) Nucleophilic addition to carbonyl compounds, (2) osmium-tetraoxide-catalyzed dihydroxylation, (3) organocopper reactions, and (4) Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation.
