Long-range electrostatic interactions in hybrid quantum and molecular mechanical dynamics using a lattice summation approach

A method based on a lattice summation technique for treating long-range electrostatic interactions in hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics simulations is presented in this article. The quantum subsystem is studied at the semiempirical level, whereas the solvent is described by a two-body potential of molecular mechanics. Molecular dynamics simulations of a (quantum) chloride ion in (classical) water have been performed to test this technique. It is observed that the application of the lattice summations to solvent-solvent interactions as well as on solute-solvent ones has a significant effect on solvation energy and diffusion coefficient. Moreover, two schemes for the computation of the long-range contribution to the electrostatic interaction energy are investigated. The first one replaces the exact charge distribution of the quantum solute by a Mulliken charge distribution. The long-range electrostatic interactions are then calculated for this charge distribution that interacts with the solvent molecule charges. The second one is more accurate and involves a modified Fock operator containing long-range electron-charge interactions. It is shown here that both schemes lead to similar results, the method using Mulliken charges for the evaluation of long-range interactions being, however, much more computationally efficient.     

Amino acid derivatives of cholesterol as "latent" organogelators with hydrogen chloride as a protonation reagent

A series of low molecular weight organic gelator (LMOG) gel systems sensitive to alkaline/acidic stimuli was established by employing amino acid derivatives of cholesterol as "latent" gelators, which are cholesteryl glycinate (1), cholesteryl L-alaninate, cholesteryl D-alaninate, cholesteryl L-phenyl alaninate, and cholesteryl D-phenyl alaninate. The hydrochloric salts are denoted as 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, respectively. For the 18 solvents tested, one proved to be a weak gelator and gels only two of the solvents. Its gelation ability, however, was greatly improved by bubbling HCl gas, which was produced by reaction of concentrated sulfuric acid with NaCl, through its solution owing to protonation of its amino group. It was demonstrated that the protonated form of it gelled 14 of the solvents tested. Further investigation revealed that the gels changed into solution with addition of any of the amines, including triethylamine (TEA), diethylamine, ethylenediamine, and NH3. The phase transition could be reversed by further introduction of the acidic gas. SEM measurements showed that 1 self-assembled into different supramolecular structures in different gels. Salt effect studies proved that electrostatic interaction is one of the driving forces for formation of the gels.

Theoretical investigation of the proton affinities of benzazoles in the gas phase and in solution

The ground‐state equilibrium geometries of benzothiazole, benzoxazole, and benzimidazole were optimized at the density functional theory (DFT)/6‐31G** level of theory. Proton affinities on each of the possible sites in the studied series of compounds have been calculated at the DFT/6‐31G**/6‐311++G** level. The results indicate clearly that N‐site protonation is strongly favored over X‐site protonation (X = NH, O, S) for the series studied. Correlation of the computed proton affinities to the energy (E_HOMO) of the highest occupied MO in the gas phase and in solution has been explored and discussed. A comprehensive investigation of the effect of solvent on the process of protonation of the studied compounds has been performed. Different dielectric continuum models (i.e., Onsager, PCM, and IPCM) have been tested; their performance and range of applicability are reported and discussed. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Structural properties and potential reactivity of substituted 3- aroyldithiocarbazates

A series of substituted 3-aroyldithiocarbazates has been synthesized and studied. The corresponding acid dissociation constants have been determined potentiometrically. Semiempirical PM3 molecular orbital calculations suggest the existence of several tautomeric forms of the compounds. Geometrical parameters, proton affinities, and static reactivity indices have been examined. Structural properties and protonation sites are well described by calculations. The strong correlations between the pK _a values and the Hammett constants as well as the N(3) calculated proton affinities indicate that the N(3) atom is the most probable protonation site. The thermodynamics of the protonation process are mainly controlled by HOMO-LUMO rather than electrostatic interactions. According to PM3 results, 3-aroyldithiocarbazic acid should be quite stable in the gas phase, while a mechanism for its decomposition in solution is proposed.

A minimalist model for exploring conformational effects on the electrospray charge state distribution of proteins

The electrospray ionization (ESI) charge state distribution of proteins is highly sensitive to the protein structure in solution. Unfolded conformations generally form higher charge states than tightly folded structures. The current study employs a minimalist molecular dynamics model for simulating the final stages of the ESI process in order to gain insights into the physical reasons underlying this empirical relationship. The protein is described as a string of 27 beads ("residues"), 9 of which are negatively charged and represent possible protonation sites. The unfolded state of this bead string is a random coil, whereas the native conformation adopts a compact fold. The ESI process is simulated by placing the protein inside a solvent droplet with a 2.5 nm radius consisting of 1600 Lennard-Jones particles. In addition, the droplet contains 14 protons which are modeled as highly mobile point charges. Disintegration of the droplet rapidly releases the protein into the gas phase, resulting in average charge states of 4.8+ and 7.4+ for the folded and unfolded conformation, respectively. The protonation probabilities of individual residues in the folded state reveal a characteristic pattern, with values ranging from 0.2 to 0.8. In contrast, the protonation probabilities of the unfolded protein are more uniform and cover the range from 0.8 to 1.0. The origin of these differences can be traced back to a combination of steric and electrostatic effects. Residues exhibiting a small accessible surface area are less likely to capture a proton, an effect that is exacerbated by partial electrostatic shielding from nearby positive residues. Conversely, sites that are sterically exposed are associated with electrostatic funnels that greatly increase the likelihood of protonation. Unfolding enhances the steric and electrostatic exposure of protonation sites, thereby causing the protein to capture a greater number of protons during the droplet disintegration process.     

Investigation of solvent effects for the Claisen rearrangement of chorismate to prephenate: mechanistic interpretation via near attack conformations

Solvent effects on the rate of the Claisen rearrangement of chorismate to prephenate have been examined in water and methanol. The preequilibrium free-energy differences between diaxial and diequatorial conformers of chorismate, which had previously been implicated as the sole basis for the observed 100-fold rate increase in water over methanol, have been reframed using the near attack conformation (NAC) concept of Bruice and co-workers. Using a combined QM/MM Monte Carlo/free-energy perturbation (MC/FEP) method, 82%, 57%, and 1% of chorismate conformers were found to be NAC structures (NACs) in water, methanol, and the gas phase, respectively. As a consequence, the conversion of non-NACs to NACs provides no free-energy contributions to the overall relative reaction rates in water versus methanol. Free-energy perturbation calculations yielded differences in free energies of activation for the two polar protic solvents and the gas phase. The rate enhancement in water over the gas phase arises from preferential hydration of the transition state (TS) relative to the reactants via increased hydrogen bonding and long-range electrostatic interactions, which accompany bringing the two negatively charged carboxylates into closer proximity. More specifically, there is an increase of 1.3 and 0.6 hydrogen bonds to the carboxylate groups and the ether oxygen, respectively, in going from the reactant to the TS in water. In methanol, the corresponding changes in hydrogen bonding with first shell solvent molecules are small; the rate enhancement arises primarily from the enhanced long-range interactions with solvent molecules. Thus, the reaction occurs faster in water than in methanol due to greater stabilization of the TS in water by specific interactions with first shell solvent molecules.     

Cluster and periodic calculations of the ethene protonation reaction catalyzed by theta-1 zeolite: influence of method, model size, and structural constraints

The protonation of ethene by three different acid sites of theta-1 zeolite was theoretically studied to analyze the extent and relevance of the following aspects of heterogeneous catalysis: the local geometry of the Br?nsted acid site in a particular zeolite, the size of the cluster used to model the catalyst, the degree of geometry relaxation around the active site, and the effects related to medium- and long-range interactions between the reaction site and its environment. It has been found that while the reaction energy is very sensitive to the local geometry of the site, the activation energy is mainly affected by the methodology used and by electrostatic effects on account of the carbocationic nature of the transition state.
