With the aim of settling a longstanding debate about the oxidation potentials of DNA constituents, herein we report the results of state-of-the-art DFT-based molecular dynamics simulations, in which the whole solvent environment is modeled at the atomistic level, by using DFT supercell calculations, with periodic boundary conditions. Calculated vertical ionization energies are very close to those observed by photoelectron spectroscopy both in the gas phase and in solution. One-electron oxidation free energies in aqueous solution agree well with the results of differential pulse voltammetry measurements and with those inferred by photoelectron spectroscopy with the aid of theoretical computations to estimate vibrational relaxation.","PeriodicalId":45,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142486455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To efficiently sample liquid water, we propose a novel approach that involves sampling static calculations of various ice phases and utilizing the active learning (AL) feature of the ACE-based D-optimality algorithm to select relevant liquid water configurations, bypassing computationally intensive ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. Our results demonstrate that the ACE descriptors enable a potential initially fitted solely on ice structures, which is later upfitted with few configurations of liquid, identified with AL to provide an excellent description of liquid water. The developed potential exhibits remarkable agreement with first-principles reference, accurately capturing various properties of liquid water, including structural characteristics such as pair correlation functions, covalent bonding profiles, and hydrogen bonding profiles, as well as dynamic properties like the vibrational density of states, diffusion coefficient, and thermodynamic properties such as the melting point of the ice Ih. Our research introduces a new and efficient sampling technique for machine learning potentials in water simulations while also presenting a transferable interatomic potential for water that reveals the accuracy of first-principles reference. This advancement not only enhances our understanding of the relationship between ice and liquid water at the atomic level but also opens up new avenues for studying complex aqueous systems.","PeriodicalId":45,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142452081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
