Outline Computer simulations –Treatment of liquids Effective Fragment Potential Method Molecular Dynamics in GAMESS Applications Future Plans

Microscopic details Macroscopic properties Test theories and compare with experiments Simulate under extreme conditions unattainable to experimentalists Laws of Statistical Mechanics Computer simulation: Motivation

Computer simulations: Condensed phase Treatment of fluid-like states and solvation is essentially a many-particle problem… –Importance of accuracy and reliability of the method used Limited by the size of the system and computational costs GOAL: model CLUSTER to BULK behavior

Condensed phase For accuracy, preference = ab initio methods, BUT… –Computationally expensive –Only realistic for small systems Solvation Models: –Clusters: Ab initio, DFT, Effective Fragment Potential,… –Bulk: Continuum methods, TIPnP, SPC/E,… Limited number of methods which span the cluster  bulk gap well

The Effective Fragment Potential Method 1,2 Treatment of discrete solvent effects EFP1/HF: –Developed at Hartree Fock level of theory (DH(d,p)) –Reproduces RHF/ab initio results… E system = E ab initio + E interaction Standard Ab Initio Calculation Effective Fragment Potential Calculation 1 Day et. al. J. Chem. Phys. 105,1968(1996). 2 Gordon et. al. J. Phys. Chem A. 105,2(2001).

EFP: Menshutkin Reaction R 3 N + RX  R 4 N + X - –Reaction rate increases with polarity of solvent –Study process of solvation on ion formation EFP test (Simon Webb): NH 3 + CH 3 Br –Add EFP waters; AI solute/solvent (RHF/DZVP)

EFP: Water Clusters Monte Carlo Simulated Annealing with EFP (Paul Day, Grant Merrill, Ruth Pachter) –N = Water hexamer –Re-optimization with HF, MP2 –CCSD(T) single points

Effect of “solvent” molecules (fragments) added as one-electron terms to ab initio Hamiltonian, H AR V = Fragment interaction potential Effective Fragment Potential Method Ab initio region EFP region

Effective Fragment Potential Method Interaction Potential Terms--EFP1/HF Electrostatics: Coulomb interactions –Multipolar expansion up to octupoles –Screening to account for overlapping charge densities –Expansion points: nuclear centers and bond midpoints Polarization: Dipole/induced dipole potential –Induced dipoles iterated to self-consistency –Centered on bonding and lone-pair localized molecular orbitals Exchange-repulsion/charge transfer: Remainder term –EFP1: exponential functions optimized by fitting procedure Limited to water –Located at fragment atom centers and center of mass

Effective Fragment Potential Method Solute explicitly treated with ab initio wavefunction of choice; remainder treated as effective fragments  QM/MM method Multipoles and polarizabilities –Determined from ab initio calculations on a single solvent molecule –Potential can be systematically improved! Exchange repulsion/charge transfer term –EFP1/HF: Currently fit to functional form  solvent specific –EFP2: generalize for any solvent NO FITS: Exchange repulsion from LMO intermolecular overlap and kinetic energy integrals NEW!! EFP1/DFT (B3LYP) All 3 terms are calculated independently from each other Only ONE-ELECTRON integrals are needed –MUCH less CPU intensive than quantum mechanics

EFP/Molecular Dynamics Do i = 1, number of simulation steps  Calculate PE and gradients  forces for particle at time t  Solve equations of motion for each particle to obtain KE at time t and new positions at time t + dt End do First test of EFP to reproduce bulk behavior with its implementation with Molecular Dynamics Basic MD Simulation loop: (user specifies time step size, dt, and length of simulation) MD is dependent upon the accuracy and reliability of the potential used to generate gradients/forces…

Molecular Dynamics Solve Newton’s equations of motion –Require both ENERGY and GRADIENT from PE routine –Integrate simultaneously for all atoms in the system to generate a trajectory for each atom –Perform integration in SMALL time steps (usually 1-10 fs) Time step size Energy conservation

Current MD Implementation in GAMESS EFP fragment-fragment interaction (EFP-EFP MD) –Classical interaction terms –EFP: EFP1/HF, EFP1/HF, EFP2 Ab initio interaction (AI MD) –Ab initio interaction –Basis set and level of theory of choice and availability in GAMESS

Current MD Implementation: EFP-EFP MD Integration EFP treats water as a rigid molecule –Center of mass motion: Translational motion  leapfrog integration algorithm Rotational motion  quaternions and modified leapfrog integration algorithm Water model parameters (calculated based on ab initio methods) are stored in GAMESS or given with input file –After each move all information must be rotated/translated along with the fragment

Current MD Implementation: EFP-EFP MD T 0 = desired/bath temperature T(t) = temperature obtained from translational or rotational kinetic energy at time t Ensembles: NVE (constant energy) NVT (constant temperature) : based on velocity scaling –Separate treatment for translational and rotational velocity components –Rescale by:

Periodic Boundary Conditions Minimum Image Convention Current MD Implementation: EFP-EFP MD Periodic boundary conditions –Introduced to minimize surface effects Minimum image convention –Restrict infinite number of terms in force calculation to only the closest N -1 periodic images –Based on center-of-mass (COM) positions

Current MD Implementation: AI MD Each atom is treated independently –Leapfrog integration algorithm NVE and NVT (velocity scaling) ensembles No periodic boundary conditions or minimum image convention currently implemented

EFP-EFP MD Applications Preparation of the system Heating: –NVE ensemble: Initial target temp = 50 K Initial quaternions chosen randomly Initial translational velocities sampled from Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution at 100 K; angular velocities start from zero –Use these coordinates to start simulation at 100 K –Same procedure to start 200 K and 300 K runs Equilibration--TARGET TEMP = 300 K: –Coordinates taken from 300 K heating run; initial translational velocities sampled from Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution at 600 K –NVT ensemble at 300K velocities rescaled only if they are outside K (scaling factors not allowed to exceed 1.3) Production: –Initial coordinates, velocities, and quaternions from equilibration –NVE and/or NVT ensemble: measure observables of interest

Compare with other water potentials… Example: –SPC/E (Simple Extended Point Charge) 4 Point charges on O and H sites Reparameterized SPC model to include polarization Values for  O,  O, and q (point charge) are determined by parameterization with experimental density and E vap as targets EFP-EFP MD Applications e -2.0q H 4 Berendsen et. al.

EFP-EFP MD Applications Radial Distribution Function (RDF): –Measures the number of atoms a distance r from a given atom compared with the number at the same distance in an ideal gas at the same density –Gives information on how molecules pack in ‘shells’ of neighbors, as well as average structure –Can be measured spectroscopically (X-ray or neutron diffraction) –Test theoretical models versus experimental results 3 SITE-SITE radial distribution functions for water: –gOO(r), gOH(r), gHH(r)
