Automated Quantum Chemistry-Based Calculation of Optical Rotation for Large Flexible Molecules

Fabian Bohle et al.

Summary: The study presents a method for automatically computing conformer ensembles and corresponding optical rotation values for flexible molecules in solution, using a set of 28 organic drug molecules for validation. The results show that the approach is effective in predicting optical rotation values with minimal user input, even for very sensitive physicochemical properties, and can be completed in a relatively short period of time.

Single-Point Hessian Calculations for Improved Vibrational Frequencies and Rigid-Rotor-Harmonic-Oscillator Thermodynamics

Sebastian Spicher et al.

Summary: The study introduces a new method named single-point Hessian (SPH) for calculating harmonic vibrational frequencies and thermodynamic contributions within quantum mechanical, semiempirical quantum mechanical, and force field methods. The SPH approach is tested for various applications, showing better reproduction of DFT reference free energies compared to conventional calculations on freely optimized geometries.

Observing ozone chemistry in an occupied residence

Yingjun Liu et al.

Summary: This study explored indoor ozone chemistry in a house in California with two adult inhabitants, finding that multiple VOCs exhibited clear contributions from ozone-initiated chemistry indoors. These chemicals include compounds commonly reported from ozone interactions with indoor surfaces and human skin lipids. Additionally, the study observed that ozone-driven chemistry continued to produce specific VOCs even after the occupants had been away from the house for several days.

Novel Bayesian Method to Derive Final Adjusted Values of Physicochemical Properties: Application to 74 Compounds

Timothy F. M. Rodgers et al.

Summary: Accurate values of physicochemical properties are crucial for screening semivolatile organic compounds for human and environmental hazard. A proposed workflow combines direct and indirect measurement methods as well as in silico values to estimate final adjusted values (FAVs). In silico methods showed significant variability and performed worse for larger, more polar compounds.

Reliable Prediction of the Octanol-Air Partition Ratio

Sivani Baskaran et al.

Summary: The study evaluated five techniques and three different equations for predicting the K-OA of organic substances, finding that the ppLFER equation using experimental solute descriptors predicted the K-OA the best. This method is preferred due to its accuracy and ease of use, even in the absence of experimental values.

Robust and Efficient Implicit Solvation Model for Fast Semiempirical Methods

Sebastian Ehlert et al.

Summary: A robust and efficient method is proposed to implicitly account for solvation effects in modern semiempirical quantum mechanics and force fields. The method based on the analytical linearized Poisson-Boltzmann (ALPB) model shows good performance over a broad range of systems and applications, with high accuracy in hydration free energy calculation.
