It is difficult to get a very wrong density, especially for relatively rigid compounds. In the meantime, deviations of density within 2% of the experimental value should be admitted acceptable. A better criterion is to compare self-diffusion or viscosity to the experiment. Another famous property

Thanks for the reply. I think I found relatively good atom types for iso propanol and derived the partial charges using antechamber and red server. I next check the density of pure iso propanol and used the closest definition to the real value. Iso propanol is used as co-solvent with water with

Normally, this sort of things is done via mechanical combining of the known groups -- CH3, -CH, OH -- from the force field. If your goal is to increase accuracy for pure 2-propanol per se, then play with the distribution of electronic density between OH and CH. If 2-propanol is to be used as a s

I saw the papers you mentioned but one is a not clear how they parameterized, one is missing the supporting material and the last is not showing the parameters they used. I will check with the initial paper of Jorgensen again but if I recall it correctly he mentioned some problems with iso-propa

that was by google. I haven't parametrized forcefields. did they just put the pieces in http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ja9621760 together and say it can work for 2-propanol? On Tue, Sep 1, 2015 at 11:34 PM, Johnny Lu wrote: > Not sure if those are for 2-propanol as a liquid or interaction

Dear list, I wanted to know if anybody has parameters for 2-propanol in the OPLS/AA format. Before deriving my own I thought it would be best to ask first. I saw some posts that people used 2-propanol in OPLS but couldn’t find any reference in google scholar. Thank you very much, Max -- Gro
