Theoretical design of molecular superbases has been attracting researchers for more than twenty years. General approaches were developed to make the bases potentially stronger, but less attention was paid stability predicted structures. Hence, only a small fraction theoretical research led positive experimental results. Possible issues extremely strong are extensively studied in this work using quantum chemical calculations on high level theory. Several step-by-step examples discussed detail, and general recommendations given avoid most common problems. New stable structures theoretically demonstrate future prospects design.
