AbstractTheoretical estimation of solvation free energy by continuum solvation models, as a standard approach in computational chemistry, is extensively applied by a broad range of scientific disciplines. Nevertheless, the current widely accepted solvation models are either inaccurate in reproducing experimentally determined solvation free energies or require a number of macroscopic observables which are not always readily available. In the present study, we develop and introduce the Machine-Learning Polarizable Continuum solvation Model (ML-PCM) for a substantial improvement of the predictability of solvation free energy. The performance and reliability of the developed models are validated through a rigorous and demanding validation procedure. The ML-PCM models developed in the present study improve the accuracy of widely accepted continuum solvation models by almost one order of magnitude with almost no additional computational costs. A freely available software is developed and provided for a straightforward implementation of the new approach.

Transient Intermediates

A computational study at correlated levels of theory is reported to address the structures and energetics of transient radicals produced by hydrogen atom abstraction from C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, O-1, O-3, and O-5 positions in 2-deoxyribofuranose in the gas phase and in aqueous solution. In general, the carbon-centered radicals are found to be thermodynamically and kinetically more stable than the oxygen-centered ones. The most stable gas-phase radical, 2-deoxyribofuranos-5-yl (5), is produced by H-atom abstraction from C-5 and stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the O-5 hydroxy group and O-1. The order of radical stabilities is altered in aqueous solution due to different solvation free energies. These prefer conformers that lack intramolecular hydrogen bonds and expose O-H bonds to the solvent. Carbon-centered deoxyribose radicals can undergo competitive dissociations by loss of H atoms, OH radical, or by ring cleavages that all require threshold dissociation or transition state energies >100 kJ mol-1. This points to largely non-specific dissociations of 2-deoxyribose radicals when produced by exothermic hydrogen atom abstraction from the saccharide molecule. Oxygen-centered 2-deoxyribose radicals show only marginal thermodynamic and kinetic stability and are expected to readily fragment upon formation.
