Abstract
The ICAR program for the elucidation of carbocationic rearrangement me chanisms is described. Chemical transformations of the given structure are generated by an exhaustive combinatorial procedure and subsequent ly evaluated with the use of a knowledge base. Multistep mechanistic p athways are rationalized with regard to thermodynamic and kinetic para meters of the rearrangements. Application of the program is discussed.
