A number of recent experimental developments has rekindle the interest on
chemical reactions showing strong magnetic and spin-dependent effects.
Although the number of chemical reactions likely to show this effects is
relatively limited, it includes some very important examples as free radical
and avoided crossing reactions, which are important in solar cells and
biological systems.
Using our recently developed theoretical model of the Chirality Induced Spin
Selectivity (CISS) effect, I will examine in detail the implications of
molecular chirality in spin-dependent chemistry, a fascinating new frontier of
research where theory and experiment merge.
