In the present PhD thesis, we report a complete theoretical study that thoroughly investigates several aspects of a complex biological system: the action of artemisinin and its derivatives against malaria. This study, conducted in the field of Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, is of great interest because it allows to uncover many aspects of the reaction mechanism of these drugs, so far, not known or controversial. The results obtained nicely agree with the experimental data known to date, and hence it can be assessed that our work has given a sound explanation of the observed facts relative to the anti-malarial mode of action of artemisinin and its derivatives.
