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.

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 ...

MLSolvA: solvation free energy prediction from pairwise atomistic interactions by machine learning [PDF]
Recent advances in machine learning technologies and their applications have led to the development of diverse structure–property relationship models for crucial chemical properties. The solvation free energy is one of them. Here, we introduce a novel ML-

GAFF/IPolQ-Mod+LJ-Fit: Optimized force field parameters for solvation free energy predictions [PDF]
Rational drug design featuring explicit solubility considerations can greatly benefit from molecular dynamics simulations, as they allow for the prediction of the Gibbs free energy of solvation and thus relative solubilities.

Solvation free energy in governing equations for DNA hybridization, protein–ligand binding, and protein folding [PDF]
This work examines the thermodynamics of model biomolecular interactions using a governing equation that accounts for the participation of bulk water in the equilibria. In the first example, the binding affinities of two DNA duplexes, one of nine and one

Solvation Free Energy Simulation for Rosmarinic Acid Extraction from Orthosiphon stamineus [PDF]
This study was aimed to extract rosmarinic acid from Orthosiphon stamineus Benth. (Lamiaceae) in high yield. The mixture of chloroform−ethyl acetate (70:30) was chosen as the solvent system because rosmarinic acid gave the lowest solvation free ...

Accurate determination of solvation free energies of neutral organic compounds from first principles
Theoretical estimations of solvation free energy by continuum solvation models are generally not accurate. Here the authors report a polarizable force field fitted entirely to first-principles calculations for the estimation of free energy of solvation ...
