Nelson H. Morgon received his B.Sc in Chemistry in 1986, his M.Sc in Physical Chemistry in 1989 and PhD in 1994 from the Campinas State University (UNICAMP). From 1994-96 he was a postdoctoral research, under supervision of Prof. J. M. Riveros, at the University of São Paulo (USP) working on the theoretical studies of ion-molecule reactions in the gas phase. In 1996 he joined the Institute of Chemistry at UNICAMP to establish a research program in Theoretical Chemistry. Morgon's research interests are: Quantum and Computational Chemistry with specific emphasis on ab initio and DFT Calculations, Analysis and Development of Basis Function Sets, Generator Coordinate Method (GCM), Theoretical Studies of Ion/Molecule Reactions in the Gas Phase and Catalytic Processes in Zeolites, Electronic Circular Dichroism (ECD), Quantum Tunneling, and Parallelism and Computing.

The project entitled "Theoretical Calculations of Electronic Spectra: UV-Vis, Fluorescence, and Circular Dichroism of Molecules of Pharmacological and Applied Interests" aims the study of electronic and structural properties of systems with potential application, such as camphor, fisetin, coumarin, and naproxen and in OLED Organic displays Light Emitting Diodes specifically SMOLEDs (Small…
The tunneling process, characterístic to quantum systems, is the ability of particles, or systems of particles, of traversing a region prohibited by classical mechanics. Examples of reactions involving tunneling are proton transfer reactions, combustion reactions, and reactions involving proteins. Recently reactions that may occur primarily via tunneling were employed in the production of…
The palladium-catalyzed coupling of arenediazonium salts to olefins (often referred to as a Heck-Matsuda reaction (HM)) has attracted considerable interest as a convenient alternative to traditional Heck protocols, and has been increasingly applied in organic synthesis. To understand of this kind coupling reactions will be applied theorectical calculation at DFT level. The research projec…
Quantum tunneling (QT) is the ability of particles and particle systems to traverse a region of higher energy. Such a process is characteristic of quantum systems and is prohibited by classical mechanics. Interest in QT has been revitalized in recent years due to increased computational power and new methods and strategies for its study. QT has been shown to be significant in a wide range…
