Aqueous Solvation of SmI2: A Born–Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics Density Functional Theory Cluster Approach

Abstract: We report the results of Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) simulations on the aqueous solvation of the SmI molecule at room temperature using the cluster microsolvation approach including 32 water molecules. The electronic structure calculations were done using the M062X hybrid exchange-correlation functional in conjunction with the 6-31G** basis sets for oxygen and hydrogen. For the iodine and samarium atoms the Stuttgart-Köln relativistic effective-core potentials were utilized with their associated… Show more

“…Increasing the amount of water beyond 20 equiv led to increased conductance, consistent with the initiation of iodide displacement from the inner sphere. This experimental finding is supported by recent studies by Ramírez-Solís and co-workers who employed Born–Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) simulations demonstrating the liberation of iodide ligands from the inner-sphere of SmI 2 upon solvation by water …”

“…Recently, molecular dynamics simulations (MD) have gained popularity as method for investigating such dynamical processes. [20][21][22][23][24] Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics (AIMD), in the form of Born-Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics (BOMD) or Car-Parrinello Molecular Dynamics (CPMD) [25][26][27] uses quantum chemical techniques to determine interatomic interactions. One of the main advantages of AIMD is that it can be used to study chemical bond-breaking and formation, 28 as such it has been used to study proton transport through water, 29 hydrogen bonding 30 and the microsolvation of ions.…”

“…Theoretical calculations can provide detailed information about the mechanism of dynamic processes at the molecular level experienced by lanthanide(III) complexes in solution. Both classical 30 and ab initio [31][32][33] molecular dynamics (AIMD) have been used to investigate lanthanide(III) complexes. However, the parametrization of force fields to be used for f-block elements is not a trivial task.…”
