We show, by application to a simple protein folding model, how a stochastic Hamiltonian can be used tostudy a complex chemical reaction. This model is found to have many metastable states and the properties of these states are investigated. A simple generalization of transition-state theory is developed and used toestimate the folding timefor the model. It is found to have a glass phase where thedynamics is very slow. The relevance of our results to protein folding and the general problem of complex chemical reactions is discussed.
