Aspects of elementary number theory pertaining to the golden ratio and the golden spiral are shown to be related to and therefore of importance in the simulation of chemical phenomena. Readily derived concepts include atomic structure, electronegativity, bond order, the theory of covalent interaction and aspects of molecular chirality. The physical interpretation of the results implicates the 4D structure of space-time as a fundamental consideration. The implied classical nature of 3D molecular structure identifies molecular mechanics as an ideal method for structure optimization, and it is shown that the parameters may be related to number theory. All results point at a 4D wave structure of electrostatic charge.

Given atomic coordinates for a particular conformation of a molecule and some property value assigned to each atom, one can easily calculate a chirality function that distinguishes enantiomers, is zero for an achiral molecule, and is a continuous function of the coordinates and properties. This is useful as a quantitative measure of chirality for molecular modeling and structure-activity relations.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
