Organic Orbital Theory-Fundamentals and Applications

本研究计划旨在首次组织一个对有机轨道理论相关研究感兴趣的日本实验与理论有机化学学术团体。该小组主要由量子有机化学家协会（QOCA，主席：Hiroshi Fujimoto，秘书长：Shuji Tomoda）的成员组成，其目标是在物理有机化学领域发现新的理论和概念。该小组在本财政年度举行了两次会议和一次公开研讨会。第一次会议于1996年7月29日在岐阜大学举行。第二次会议是在10月初收到教育部的通知后立即计划的。由于这一通知出乎意料，而且我们每个人都事先做好了准备，因此会议于1997年1月25日在京都举行，也就是原计划在QOCA主持下在京都举行的第二届量子有机化学研讨会的第二天。这两次会议对成员们非常有用，因为它们为我们这些实验或理论化学家提供了宝贵的机会来相互激励。第二届量子有机化学研讨会向QOCA以外的化学家开放。93名化学家参加了会议，这似乎显示了QOCA的光明前景。我国在有机量子化学发展史上积累了巨大的学术财富。其中最具代表性的是福井的前沿轨道理论。在有机化学领域创造一种新的、简单、方便和广泛适用的有机轨道概念，进一步激发有机化学的工业研发和教育效率，是我们必须继承和发展的财富。

This research proposal was intended to organize for the first time a combined academic group of Japanese experimental and theoretical organic chemisis, who are interested in research related to organic orbital theory. The group consists mostly of the members of Quantum Organic Chemist's Association (QOCA ; Chairman : Hiroshi Fujimoto ; Secretary Genetal : Shuji Tomoda) whose aim is directed toward the discovery of novel theories and concepts in the field of physical organic chemictry.The group had two meetings and one public symposium during this fiscal year. The first meeting was held on July 29,1996 at Gifu University. The second meeting was planned immediately after belated notice from the Ministry in early October. Since this notice was unexpected and none of us had not been prepared for it, the meeting was held in Kyoto on January 25,1997, the next day of the 2nd Quantum Organic Chemistry Symposium, which had been planned to be held in Kyoto under the auspices of QOCA.The two meetings were very useful for the members in that they provided valuable chances to us experimental or theoretical chemists to stimulate each other. The 2nd Quentum Organic Chemistry Symposium was open to the chemists outside QOCA.Ninety three chemists attended, which seemed show the bright future of QOCA.Our country has accumulated tremendous amount of academic fortune in the history of organic quantum chemistry. The most representative one is Fukui's frontier orbital theory. The fortune must be succeeded and develped to create a new, simple, convenient and widely applicable organic orbital concepts in the field of organic chemistry to further stimulate industrial R & D and educational efficiency in organic chemistry.
