Abstract: With the development of relativity and quantum mechanics, the fundamental theoretical foundation of chemical science has been well founded. The emergence of computation science and technology has brought chemistry into a new era where experiment and theory can work together. Computational chemistry has now become an essential part of modern chemistry, and chemistry is thereby no longer a purely experimental science. In this talk, we will provide an overview on the importance of close interplay of experiment, theory and computation. Successful examples will be presented involving the findings of actinide-noble-gas bonding,^[1] Au₂₀ nanocluster,^[2] borophene (B₃₆, B₃₅)^[3] and borospherene (B₄₀),^[4] single-atom catalysts and germinal-atom catalysts.^[5,6] A perspective will be given to the future development of achieving atomically precise chemistry with close collaboration between experiment and theory.
