Abstract
In this minireview, we overview a computational pipeline developed within the framework of NCCRCatalysis that can be used to successfully reproduce the enantiomeric ratios of homogeneous catalytic reactions.At the core of this pipeline is the SCINE Molassembler module, a graph-based software that provides algorithmsfor molecular construction of all periodic table elements. With this pipeline, we are able to simultaneously functionalizenand generate ensembles of transition state conformers, which permits facile exploration of the influencenof various substituents on the overall enantiomeric ratio. This allows preconceived back-of-the-envelope designnmodels to be tested and subsequently refined by providing quick and reliable access to energetically low-lyingntransition states, which represents a key step in undertaking in silico catalyst optimization.
