Abstract

An overview of recent advances in the development of methods designed to calculate rate constants for chemical reactions obeying mass action kinetic equations in condensed phases is presented. A general framework addressing mixed quantum-classical systems is elaborated that enables quantum features such as tunneling effects, zero-point vibrations, dynamic quantum coherence, and non-adiabatic effects to be calculated. An efficient Monte Carlo sampling method for performing ab-initio calculations of rate constants and isotope effects in chemical processes in condensed phases is outlined, and the connection of isotope effects to reaction mechanism is explored
