New solvation free energy function comprising intermolecular solvation and intramolecular self-solvation terms [PDF]
Solvation free energy is a fundamental thermodynamic quantity that should be determined to estimate various physicochemical properties of a molecule and the desolvation cost for its binding to macromolecular receptors.

Predicting Solvation Thermodynamics in Water and Ionic Liquids using the Multi-Scale Solvation Layer Interface Condition (SLIC) [PDF]
We highlight the most recent developments of the solvation-layer interface condition (SLIC) continuum dielectric model in predicting solvation thermodynamics of neutral small molecules in water and multiple ionic liquids.

Optimal Relabeling of Water Molecules and Single-Molecule Entropy Estimation
Estimation of solvent entropy from equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations is a long-standing problem in statistical mechanics. In recent years, methods that estimate entropy using k-th nearest neighbours (kNN) have been applied to internal degrees of

Improved prediction of solvation free energies by machine-learning polarizable continuum solvation model [PDF]
Accurate theoretical evaluation of solvation free energy is challenging. Here the authors introduce a machine-learning based polarizable continuum solvation approach to improve the accuracy of widely accepted continuum solvation models by almost one ...

Ca+ Ions Solvated in Helium Clusters
We present a combined experimental and theoretical investigation on Ca+ ions in helium droplets, HeNCa+. The clusters have been formed in the laboratory by means of electron-impact ionization of Ca-doped helium nanodroplets.

Solvation-Induced Conformational Switching of Trisphthalocyanates for Control of Their Magnetic Properties [PDF]
Stabilization of different conformers of sandwich phthalocyaninates by changing the solvation environment has been demonstrated with the examples of new heteroleptic yttrium(III) and terbium(III) triple-decker complexes [(BuO)8Pc]M[(BuO)8Pc]M[(15C5)4Pc] (

Solvation-Anionic Exchange Mechanism of Solvent Extraction: Enhanced U(VI) Uptake by Tetradentate Phenanthroline Ligands [PDF]
Phenanthroline diamides (L) demonstrated a unique ability to extract uranium from nitric acid solutions into a polar organic solvent forming complexes of 1:2 stoichiometry as tight ion pairs {[UO2LNO3]+[UO2(NO3)3]−} by a novel extraction mechanism, which
