Force Field for Molecular Dynamics Computations in Flexible ZIF-8 Framework

Abstract: Correct modeling of framework flexibility plays a major role in obtaining accurate results when performing atomistic simulations of guest molecule diffusion within ZIF crystal structures. Here we present a full set of force field parameters, based on the AMBER database and on previously computed partial charges, well reproducing the ZIF-8 structural properties over a wide range of temperatures and pressures. To test our model, the self-diffusivity for sorbed carbon-dioxide is computed and is found to be in goo… Show more

“…Molecular dynamics (MD), based on classical mechanics, is the most widely applied tool for the production of trajectories of guests in the phase space and obtainment of measurable macroscopic properties like diffusion [1]. Although many accurate MD simulations have been reported the results mainly depend on the assumption of inter-and intra-molecular potentials [7][8][9]. A reasonable semi-empirical force field for MOF systems should represent both the stability and the flexibility of the framework, which in principle increases the difficulty of building a force field [7,[9][10][11][12][13].…”

“…The first, and dominant category, is the use of transferable intramolecular force fields for organic molecules (e.g., from the AMBER parameter database [322]) along with hand-tuned metal-organic bending and torsion potentials. The later are then optimized to reproduce known structural properties and vibration frequencies, [323,324,325] or experimental data such as adsorption isotherms and structural transitions. [326,327,328] This approach is not entirely generalizable, and the quality of the resulting force field is only validated on limited experimental data and cannot be systematically improved, as the optimization problem is typically underconstrained (too many parameters fitted on relatively little data).…”
