چکیده

We propose a novel approach toward calculating activation and reaction volumes based on MD simulations of reaction systems. The accuracy of the calculated volumes, verified by the comparison to the experimental data, is suitable for quantitative analysis of the experimental volumes of activations in terms of structural parameters of the corresponding transition states.

Molecular dynamics calculation of molecular volumes and volumes of activation.

Experimentally, the effects of pressure on reaction rates are described by their pressure derivatives, known as volumes of activation. Transition state theory directly links activation volumes to partial molar volumes of reactants and transition states. We discuss a molecular dynamics method for the accurate calculation of molecular volumes, within which the volumes of molecular species are obt...

Iterative Force-Field Calculation and Molecular Dynamics of Cyclooctanone

Body's iterative force-field computer program has been used to calculate strain energies in cyclooctanone (I). 348 MHZ 1H NMR spectra of (I) have been investigated over the temperature range of 25° to -160°C. Two conformation processes affect the 1H NMR spectrum of (I). Iterative force-field calculations on the conformations and conformational interconversion paths of ...
