Dear gromacs users,

I want to simulate proton transfer between water and another small molecule in gromacs. In the end I should have the velosity of proton proton exchange. Please can you advice me which method is better to use for this in gromacs.
I read about umbrella sampling, but may be there is other techniques?


You can't do this with standard MD. Bonds cannot break and re-form in a classical force field. You might be able to do accomplish it with QM, however, but in that case you need to be looking outside of Gromacs.

Yours sincerely,
