Accurate Energies and Structures for Large Water Clusters Using the X3LYP Hybrid Density Functional
TL;DR: In this paper, an extended hybrid density functional (X3LYP) was proposed to describe noncovalently bound systems as accurately as covalent systems, which is the most practical ab initio method today for calculating accurate water cluster structures and energies.

Enhancing 2-iodoxybenzoic acid reactivity by exploiting a hypervalent twist.
Julius T. Su,William A. Goddard +1 more
TL;DR: It is explained why IBX oxidizes large alcohols faster than small ones and a modification to the reagent predicted to make it more active is proposed.

The Development of a Facile Tandem Wolff/Cope Rearrangement for the Synthesis of Fused Carbocyclic Skeletons
TL;DR: A divergent reaction course of the vinylcyclopropyl diazo ketone substrates under sono- or photochemical activation provides good to excellent yields of the product cycloheptadienones and vinyl cyclopentenones.

First-Principles-Based Multiscale, Multiparadigm Molecular Mechanics and Dynamics Methods for Describing Complex Chemical Processes
Andres Jaramillo-Botero,Robert J. Nielsen,Ravi Abrol,Julius T. Su,Tod A. Pascal,Jonathan E. Mueller,William A. Goddard +6 more
TL;DR: Some of the significant progress towards solving problems via a general multiscale, multiparadigm strategy based on first-principles quantum mechanics is described, including understanding the solvation effects on the reactivity of organic and organometallic structures, predicting transmembrane protein structures, understanding carbon nanotube nucleation and growth.
