We apply techniques from Computer Aided Design of spatial curves to generate the trajectories of molecules involved in a chemical reaction. The main point is the use of Rotation Minimizing Frames along the trajectories, defined as Bézier curves, to visualize the motion of the molecule minimizing the twist.
