The investigation of molecular structures and of their properties is one of the most fascinating topics in chemistry. Chemistry has a language of its own for molecular structures which has been developed from the first alchemy experiments to modem times. With the improvement of computational methods for chemical information processing, several descriptors for the handling of molecular information have been developed and used in a wide range of applications.

Sir Isaac Newton spent much of his life pursuing an elusive dream, the transmutation of base materials into gold. Though he was not successful during his lifetime, he did manage to discover the equations of motion that, tliree centuries later, make alchemy possible on a computer. To perfonn this feat, Newton s equations need only be supplemented by the modem technology of free energy simulations.
