Modeling non-covalent interactions in condensed phase

Veronika Juraskova

The modeling of non-covalent interactions, solvation effects, and chemical reactions in complex molecular environment is a challenging task. Current state-of-the-art approaches often rely on static computations using implicit solvent models and harmonic ap ...

Assessing the persistence of chalcogen bonds in solution with neural network potentials

Rubén Laplaza Solanas, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Frédéric Célerse, Veronika Juraskova

Non-covalent bonding patterns are commonly harvested as a design principle in the field of catalysis, supramolecular chemistry, and functional materials to name a few. Yet, their computational description generally neglects finite temperature and environme ...

How Robust Is the Reversible Steric Shielding Strategy for Photoswitchable Organocatalysts?

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Simone Gallarati, Raimon Fabregat I De Aguilar-Amat, Veronika Juraskova, Théo Pierre Jaffrelot Inizan

A highly appealing strategy to modulate a catalyst's activity and/or selectivity in a dynamic and noninvasive way is to incorporate a photoresponsive unit into a catalytically competent molecule. However, the description of the photoinduced conformational ...

Simulating Solvation and Acidity in Complex Mixtures with First-Principles Accuracy: The Case of CH3SO3H and H2O2 in Phenol

Michele Ceriotti, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Kevin Rossi, Veronika Juraskova

We present a generally applicable computational framework for the efficient and accurate characterization of molecular structural patterns and acid properties in an explicit solvent using H2O2 and CH3SO3H in phenol as an example. To address the challenges ...
