abstract = {Computer-Aided Molecular Design (CAMD) enables the
automated exploration of chemical space and thus offers
great possibilities for efficient design of chemical
products. The key to reliable CAMD is a sound prediction of
the properties of desired products, where quantum
chemistry-based (quantum chemical, QC) prediction methods
offer unique opportunities. In this article, we discuss CAMD
methods based on QC and highlight two important fields of
application: the design of solvents and of molecular
catalysts. Screening of separation solvents based on
physical property targets can be regarded as established by
now. However, the integration of molecular design and
process design remains an important challenge. For the
design of reactive systems, transition state theory provides
a sound basis. However, efficient CAMD methods and tools
based on quantum chemistry are still in their infancy.
Recent results and the unexplored opportunities of quantum
chemistry make the development of QC-based CAMD methods a
promising field of research.},
