GB/SA-based continuum solvation model for octanol

SA Best, KM Merz, CH Reynolds - The Journal of Physical …, 1997 - ACS Publications
A continuum solvation model has been developed for octanol on the basis of the
generalized Born/surface area (GB/SA) formalism. This model was parameterized to fit …

Parametrized model for aqueous free energies of solvation using geometry-dependent atomic surface tensions with implicit electrostatics

GD Hawkins, CJ Cramer… - The Journal of Physical …, 1997 - ACS Publications
We present a new model for predicting aqueous free energies of solvation based entirely on
geometry-dependent atomic surface tensions. The model is especially suited for rapid …

Footprinting molecular electrostatic potential surfaces for calculation of solvation energies

CS Calero, J Farwer, EJ Gardiner, CA Hunter… - Physical Chemistry …, 2013 - pubs.rsc.org
A liquid is composed of an ensemble of molecules that populate a large number of different
states, so calculation of the solvation energy of a molecule in solution requires a method for …

A blind challenge for computational solvation free energies: introduction and overview

JP Guthrie - The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2009 - ACS Publications
The accompanying set of papers arose from a recent blind challenge to computational
solvation energies. The challenge was based on a set of 63 drug-like molecules for which …
