Theoretical investigation
of the Krebs cycle within the scope of quantum chemistry and algebraic
chemistry
Within the scope of quantum chemistry (AM1-method) and
algebraic chemistry (quasi-ANB-matrices method) a theoretical investigation of
the reactions of the Krebs cycle has been carried out. Considering the value of
the determinant of the quasi-ANB-matrix as a “parameter of complexity” of
the system, it can be concluded that the complexities change during the
cycle similarly to the enthalpies of reactions.
