Abstract: The 35th Congress of Theoretical Chemists of Latin Expression (QUITEL/CHITEL) was held from September 18 to 22, 2009, on San Andres Island, Colombia. About 170 participants from 27 countries gathered for 5 days of lectures, poster sessions and informal discussions. The Congress took place at the Sunrise Beach Hotel, set on the north-eastern tip of San Andres, overlooking the Caribbean Sea, in premises endowed with the latest multimedia equipment. This 35th version of the QUITEL/CHITEL Congress, held for the first time in Colombia, followed the format of previous meetings, that is, all lectures were conducted in romance languages. The program consisted of 24 plenary lectures, 37 short oral communications and 3 poster sessions. These proceedings contain papers from many of the Congress sessions, and have been subject to the normal refereeing procedures of the International Journal of Quantum Chemistry. The organizers are pleased to acknowledge the support given to the QUITEL/CHITEL 2009 Congress by Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Universidad de Cordoba, Universidad de Antioquia, Universidad del Valle, Universidad Santiago de Cali, Universidad Industrial de Santander, COLCIENCIAS, MInisterio de Educacion de Colombia and ICETEX. The contributions of our sponsors enabled us to maintain the high-quality standard of this QUITEL/CHITEL meeting. Special thanks go to Dr. Maria Tubio, who offered her invaluable assistance in handling the numerous details involved in organizing an international scientific meeting, including the local arrangements, registration process and social activities. We are grateful to all oral speakers and poster presenters for making this congress a stimulating experience.
