We present the surface generalized born (S-GB) method, based on expansion of energy in a surface integral series. The method can be parametrized for simultaneous reproduction of the reaction field energy for small molecules as well as macromolecules. For a set of 195 small molecules, our S-GB model gives a root mean square (rms) of 0.13 kcal/mol relative to the rigorous polarizable continuum model (PCM).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
